Abstract: For global navigation satellite system (GNSS)-independent operation of auxiliary PNT systems, one or more ground stations of the auxiliary system have access to a non-GNSS source of precision timing. That source and known locations of the ground stations may be used to derive timing corrections to account for imperfect clocks in the satellites for non-purpose-built satellite systems being used for PNT. Crosslinks between satellites and/or propagation of timing correction through other ground stations are used to better control the timing and resulting precession of PNT in the PNT auxiliary system. The timing correction may be provided as a service to end users, other constellations, and/or other satellite operators.

Abstract: For validation of wireless signals, a wireless receiver receives a validation signal that includes information from a target signal. By using digital signature, message authentication code (MAC), and/or hashing, the validation signal is verified to be from a trusted source. By comparing the information from the verified validation signal with the target signal, the target signal is confirmed to be genuine or not a spoofing signal. In one approach, the validation signal is provided from a different transmission source than the target signal. In another approach, modulation estimation rather than known modulation is used as the information for the validation signal for comparison with the target signal despite not knowing the spread pattern of the coding. In yet another approach, a one-way function is used to generate a pseudorandom code to spread a first component of the a first signal below the noise floor. The input to the one-way function is a second component sent at a time later than the time.

Abstract: For validation of position, navigation, time (PNT) signals, a hash included in messages with PNT data is used to validate the source of the message without backhaul. Different tags from a hash chain are included in different messages. The receiver is pre-loaded with the root or later trusted hash tag of the chain as created. The hash of any received message may be hashed by the receiver. The result of the hashing will match the pre-loaded or trusted hash tag if the transmitter of the message is a valid source. The PNT data may be validated using a digital signature formed from the PNT data for one or more messages and the hash tag wherein a hash tag of the chain in a subsequently received message is used as the key. The digital signature may be formed from data across multiple messages.

Abstract: There are provided systems and methods for intelligent interface displays based on past data correlations. A service provider and/or entity may implement a machine learning engine to dynamically adjust data displayed in interface elements of an interface provided by the service provider or entity. The data may correspond to an amount for a voluntary payment to the entity by a user and may be based on correlating and processing past user transactions and received entity payments. Weights may be applied to the data to determine median, average, and/or quartile amounts based on goals set by the user, events occurring at the time of the voluntary payment, and/or time of year. Once the machine learning engine determines one or more amounts specific to the user's payment to the entity, the engine may adjust or output the interface having the user specific data for processing.
