Team - Quantum Enhanced Signal Intelligence

Introduction

We are building a high-performance ELINT (Electronic Intelligence) system capable of detecting and analyzing weak, agile, and low-probability-of-intercept (LPI) signals across wide spectral ranges, including radar and frequency-hopping sources. This effort combines established RF engineering with insights from Atomic and Molecular Optics (AMO) Physics, enabling the redefinition of conventional system parameters and sensing strategies. To realize this vision, we are assembling a cross-functional team that blends system architecture, radar signal processing, hardware design, and compliance engineering, with close integration between engineering and physics expertise.
