Collaboration Extends NextNav’s 5G-Powered Integrated Sensing and Communications Capabilities for Low-Altitude Airspace Monitoring

NextNav Inc. (NASDAQ:NN), a leader in next-generation terrestrial Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) and 3D geolocation solutions, today announced a strategic partnership with AiRANACULUS, a developer of intelligent RF, signal processing, and advanced networking technologies, to advance integrated sensing and communications (ISAC) across NextNav’s licensed lower 900 MHz spectrum.

By combining NextNav’s ground-based 5G-powered 3D PNT network with AiRANACULUS’s advanced signal processing technology, the collaboration will expand NextNav’s drone sensing and long-range, early warning capability for counter-unmanned aircraft systems (C-UAS) while reducing the amount of infrastructure required for wide-area sensing coverage.
