The Center for Assured & Resilient Navigation in Advanced Transportation Systems (CARNATIONS) is a five-year, $10 million grant project funded by the U.S. Department of Transportation and is led by the Illinois Institute of Technology with Chicago State University, Stanford University, Virginia Tech and the University of California Riverside serving as partner institutions. CSU’s team is led by Dr. Moussa Ayyash who is a CARNATIONS co-Principal Investigator and serves as a member of its leadership team. IIT’s Dr. Boris Pervan is a Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, and leads the center. 

With a broad coalition of university collaborators and industry advisers, CARNATIONS will develop sophisticated algorithms to support the resilience of transportation system that can tell the difference between authentic or spoofed GPS signals and improving GPS receivers by combining them with other types of sensors that are immune to jamming and spoofing.  CARNATIONS is a "Tier-1 U.S. DOT University Transportation Center (UTC) focused on Resilient Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (R-PNT) and resilient PNT-related communications in multimodal transportation."
