ZaiNar does PNT with a multi-band SDR that overlays on any RF link. So, they can do geolocation in complicated environments (urban, indoor, underground, dynamically changing environments). They have a great team that invented a new way to do inexpensive geolocation, like a multispectral RF interferometer, but entirely in software, a very unique approach with over 50 issued patents. They can work on any RF band, from 5G to WiFi to satellite links.
