Revolutionizing Spectrum Sensing
with Quantum RF
Sqywire uses Rydberg atomic sensing to replace traditional RF antennas, unlocking unmatched broadband sensitivity and compact deployment.
Revolutionizing Spectrum Sensing
Sqywire is an innovative Quantum Radio Frequency (QRF) receiver system leveraging Rydberg (excited) atomic states to detect RF signals—without traditional antennas or solid-state analog receivers.
The result: ultra-broadband reception, compact deployment, and resilience in challenging environments.
How Sqywire Works
Sqywire replaces conventional RF front ends with a three-step quantum sensing process:
- Laser Excitation: Excites atoms to Rydberg states.
- RF Interaction: RF field perturbs atomic energy levels.
- Optical Detection: Changes in probe beam detected, converting RF to optical domain.
This is similar to RF photonics, but with no antenna—enabling a smaller aperture and broader operational range.
Key Advantages
Full-spectrum sensing from small aperture.
Ultra-broadband coverage (3 MHz–6 GHz, roadmap to sub-kHz – 100s GHz).
Robust against interference in complex RF environments.
Rugged, modular, and compact SWaP system.
Scalable roadmap for future miniaturization & performance expansion.
Enabling RF Convergence
A single, multi-channel QRF receiver can simultaneously replace all these systems.
Product Roadmap
Sqywire is evolving toward smaller, lighter, and more capable systems.
Gen 1: 9U, 3 MHz–6 GHz
Gen 2: 4U, 1 MHz-12 GHz
Gen 3: Modular Rugged VPX Product
