FY14 RDT&E Project Portfolio - USCG - U.S. Coast Guard

CYBER Defense for Maritime Position Navigation and Timing
Mission Need: Maritime navigation and CG situation awareness relies on effective Position Navigation and
Timing (PNT) and Automatic Identification System (AIS) despite Denial of Service (DOS), or
deliberate spoofing of GPS and AIS.
Project Objectives:
• Investigate and develop methods to identify GPS outages and signal
interference based upon information available from existing systems
(NAIS and DGPS monitoring). The methods should be able to identify
both local and broad geographic area GPS issues.
• Investigate and develop methods to detect intentional deception (spoofing)
of the GPS and AIS signals.
• Investigate and develop mitigation technologies and strategies to prevent
interference, jamming and spoofing of commercial navigation receivers.
Implement recommendations through equipment standards development.
