The Institute of Communications and Navigation develops and investigates new systems and methods for radio transmission and radiolocation. They are used for the area-wide provision of multimedia content, as well as for the Internet connection of satellites, aircraft or remote areas. Optical transmission methods are being developed for the area of high rate transmission between satellites and to the ground. In satellite navigation, great emphasis is placed on safety-critical applications that require very reliable position and time determination, as well as on the ability to locate in canyons and buildings.
