Rydberg RF sensors for spaceborne radar applications (RydRa 50WM2349)
Abstract
This report presents an overview of the results from the Rydra (50WM2349) study, prepared in support of the study's closeout. The primary objective of this study was to explore the feasibility of replacing conventional technology, currently utilized in space-borne radar systems, with quantum technology, specifically Rydberg atom-based sensors. The study was conducted in collaboration between Airbus Defence and Space GmbH, Quantum Valley Ideas Laboratories (QVIL), and the DLR.
