Quantum Time Transfer: using entangled photons for resilient PNT applications

David Mitlyng

CEO of Xairos

David Mitlyng is the CEO of Xairos, a startup building a global timing service to expand beyond GPS.  David has three decades of experience in the space industry, including Hughes Space and Communications, Orbital, Maxar, and BridgeComm. David has a BS in Aeronautical Engineering from Cal Poly SLO, a MS in Aeronautics and Astronautics from Stanford University, and an MBA from the MIT Sloan School of Management. 

Xairos

Xairos is developing a global resilient space-based timing architecture using Quantum Time Transfer (QTT), a protocol invented, patented, and perfected by the Xairos team. Accurate timing synchronization is critical for the world’s transportation, networks, financial transactions, data centers, and power grids. Xairos is commercializing QTT to develop the next generation of Position, Navigation, and Timing (PNT), with sub-nanosecond-level accuracy (1000 times better) and the security needed for future networks and applications.
