Aerospace and defense operators are facing growing challenges detecting and tracking weak signals—whether from small drones in crowded RF environments or from the rapidly increasing number of satellites and debris objects in low Earth orbit that require high‑sensitivity monitoring. These issues are intensified when GNSS disruption breaks timing coherence across distributed radar networks, reducing accuracy and situational awareness in contested environments. QuantaSense is developing quantum‑enhanced sensing and timing technologies that capture faint signals with greater clarity while maintaining precise synchronization across large sensor networks. This approach strengthens weak‑signal detection, improves tracking across air and space, and provides a resilient foundation for next‑generation aerospace surveillance systems.
Abdul Mohamed is the Co‑Founder and CEO of QuantaSense, a Calgary‑based deep‑tech company developing next‑generation quantum‑enhanced sensing and timing technologies for aerospace and defense applications. With expertise in superconducting circuit design, quantum optics, and advanced measurement systems, Abdul specializes in technologies that push the limits of weak‑signal detection and high‑precision synchronization across complex sensor networks. Abdul co‑founded QuantaSense, where he contributed to the development of quantum‑limited amplifiers and precision readout systems for quantum sensing research.
