BEDFORD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct 1, 2025--
Mayflower Communications Company, Inc., a Massachusetts-based leader in advanced anti-jam system solutions for military and commercial markets, has been granted two pivotal U.S. patents— US 11,262,457 and US 12,235,365 —that significantly advance its Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) anti-jam capabilities. These patents expand Mayflower’s proprietary technology into Signals of Opportunity (SoOP), enabling interference suppression across both Iridium and GNSS frequency bands.
GPS remains a cornerstone of Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) for both military and commercial platforms. However, its vulnerability to intentional and unintentional jamming and spoofing has underscored the need for more resilient PNT solutions. Signals of Opportunity—non-navigational RF signals not originally intended for PNT—can serve as valuable backups when GPS signals are degraded or denied. But like GPS, SoOP signals are also susceptible to interference and require protection to be viable contributors to a resilient PNT framework.
Mayflower’s newly patented technology provides simultaneous protection of GPS and Iridium satellite signals within a compact, low Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP) footprint—critical for modern platforms operating in GPS-contested environments.
“The issuance of these seminal patents by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office affirms Mayflower’s continued leadership in resilient PNT technologies for both military and commercial markets,” said Dr. Triveni Upadhyay, President of Mayflower. “Our innovative approach to filtering interference across multiple satellite communication systems—including Iridium—demonstrates our ability to meet the growing demand for GPS-alternative solutions. Leveraging Signals of Opportunity without significantly increasing SWaP is a key milestone in delivering more robust, operationally viable PNT systems. We’re excited to bring this technology to our partners across sectors.”
