Cognitive Opportunistic Navigation Using Unknown Reference Signals
TS-073173 —
Modern navigation systems increasingly rely on signals of opportunity such as 5G and LEO satellite downlinks, but these signals often lack public reference‑signal specifications, may be dynamic or on‑demand, and can suffer from severe Doppler effects. Conventional receivers cannot reliably acq…

Cooperative Navigation Strategy for Safer, Smarter Urban Intersections
TS-073111 —
Urban intersections are among the highest‑risk environments for automated and human‑driven vehicles due to occlusions, complex right‑of‑way, mixed traffic, and inconsistent connectivity. On‑board perception alone often misses beyond‑line‑of‑sight actors, while centralized or game
