DEVCOM Army Research Lab Achieves 3D RF Signal Measurement

Quantum Zeitgeist4 min read

DEVCOM Army Research Lab scientists demonstrated a quantum sensor measuring the full 3D direction of radio-frequency electromagnetic fields, a first.

Scientists at the U. S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command, DEVCOM Army Research Laboratory, have achieved a first: measuring the full 3D direction of radio-frequency electromagnetic fields with a quantum sensor. This breakthrough moves battlefield signal detection beyond traditional methods, which can only assess field strength in one direction at a time; the new sensor provides a complete three-dimensional picture of signal origin and motion. At…
