Published purpose

The main objective of the project is to develop Rydberg atom-based radio frequency (RF) sensors for applications in space. The initial studies show that Rydberg atom-based sensors are poised to outperform classical technology in almost all relevant metrics. The project team will perform feasibility checks, do a performance analysis, propose a high-level instrument architecture, survey requirements and carry-out proof-of-concept experiments to evaluate Rydberg atom-based sensors for spaceborne radar during the program period.
