The replacer for the GPS is under search.

Artist's impression of "Starlink" system


The researchers are investigating the possibility to use the Space X corporations Starlink data communication system for replacer of the GPS. There is the possibility that the same satellites can use as the communication and pointer systems. The satellites can locate the target by using similar technology with the GPS. When the device asks for the location data, the satellite is aiming its antenna to that point. 

The six satellites can make that location operation. And the system bases the idea. That the point of the device is located by using the 3D version of the triangular metering. 

So the Starlink-based location system can operate same time as a satellite data transmitter and locator system. The system which combines those abilities can track every mobile device or WLAN-support station in the world in seconds. 


The laser-pointer can locate a person by using a photo-satellite like civil Landsat or military KeyHole system. 


The laser pointer that is targeted to the skies can locate the person by using the satellite's camera system. The satellite uses its camera and takes an image of that laser-led. Then it would send that image to that device. The system would position the person or the LED light on the map or satellite image. 

The other way to replace the GPS is to use the high-resolution recon satellite that locates the device. The system is platform-free. It can operate as well as with the "Landsat" and "KeyHole" (KH-11) satellites. The requirement for the system is that the satellite can detect the laser pointer. 

The device must equip with a laser-led or some other laser system. And when the device asks for location the satellite can zoom its camera to that point. Then the image of the area where that LED light is will be transmitted to the device. 

That kind of imaging satellite-based location system is a platform-free system that can operate by using all imaging satellites for the purpose. The spaceborne mapping satellites can see the laser pointer as well as the photo-recon satellites. The accuracy of the system depends on the resolution capacity of the location satellite.

Electric scooters and bicycles can be used to track people, where they are moving.




Electric scooters and bicycles can be used to track people, where they are moving.

In many cities in the services, which can be used to borrow bicycles or electric scooters. Those services are reserved only for registered users and the thing is that each of those vehicles is equipped with GPS, which means that the service could follow every one of its vehicles on the map, and that thing makes those vehicles problematic for security.

That means that the service, what will borrow those vehicles can see, where those vehicles are used, and the thing is that the driving speed and lines, what the driver uses can see in the computer monitors. The user of the vehicle can also be tracked by using the borrowing information, which means that the persons, who are using that thing bad way or against the rules can be tracked very easily. But the problem is that if the computers would store data of the movements of a certain person, that would cause the breakdown of privacy.

The thing is that those persons, who are responsible for the service of those scooters might even not know, that the system would store the data of the movements of some person. And that makes this kind of thing problematic. The data, that is collected can be used to track the drug dealers or some other persons, who are making illegal actions. That kind of data can be used by authorities, but also other criminals would use this kind of tracking data to find the places, that they want to rob.

Because the money, what is handled in those places is illegal, that means that the victims would not make a report of an offense, and that means that those persons would not be looked by police. Of course, the other criminals would want to revenge. But the robbery would not come to the public knowledge, and the criminals cannot use the same method with police or other official authorities.

The thing is that the tracking data of the location could be so sharp, that the system would know the location of the tracked person by using the centimeter scale error possibility. That means that the system can collect data, does the person drive in the middle of the people, or does that person use some special routes? Or does that target make things, what is telling the need to find out the followers, like driving around the block for many hours?

But the thing is that data can be collected very easily, and that collection might be very well targeted. In this case, only the people, whose location benefits the corporation would be followed, and this kind of thing is really difficult to uncover because the follower can use some kind of hacker software to see the locations of the vehicles. And that thing can happen hidden from the public eye.

Problems with cyberdefense

Problems with cyberdefense



Cyberdefense is a complicated thing, and one of the greatest problems in that area is would the other side of the operation use it's best tools for handling enemy operation. So when some state is under the cyberattack, should it use physical force like bombing the targets, where the cyberattacks come, and in this kind of cases, the attacking computers can be remote-operated, what means that the attackers themselves are not wounded even if the smart weapon hits the target.

But when we are thinking possibility, that some operators would put the malicious tool in the Linux operating system, and that operating system would be used in the tactical systems like missiles and trolling servers. Would the operator uncover that it has access to every system, what is using that operating system, or rather saying what is the scale of the cyber- and other attacks, when that ability should be used?

If some operators can shut down every tactical system of the enemy by destroying the kernel of the operating system, it would cause very big troubles for the enemy offensive. And the other problem or threat is that the numbers in the systems like cannon and smart bomb targeting algorithms would be changed, and the systems would be lost their accuracy.

The one part of the cyberattacks can be cyber sabotage and cyber assassinations. The cyber sabotage can be that the centrifuges of the nuclear enriching process are adjusted wrong, and in the worst scenarios that thing would cause spontaneous fission, and nuclear explosion in the laboratory.

And in some cases, the algorithm that detects the people by their key cards or biometric access data would be turned to the assassination tool. That means when the targeted person would step in the elevator, the break will turn off, and that means the end for that person. This kind of thing might be devastating and horrifying scenarios in the cyber threat.

That kind of thing must be noticed, when the system is planned. And the thing is that that the most vulnerable systems are protected systems, which have the only couple of users. The thing that increases the level of a vulnerability is that the systems are supposed being safe. And there is no public data about the codes, what are making those programs.

If somebody could pass the firewall and have the source codes of the system, that can allow creating a virus, that cannot detect by using a normal firewall or antivirus software. The thing that those systems are located in the secret laboratories, and they are not updated makes them vulnerable, and the personnel that is operating those systems might be highly trained, but they might not experts in the cybersecurity. And if there is no firewall in the laboratory, the infected mobile telephone can slip the malicious software inside those systems.

But when we are looking at the cases, like when Israeli aircraft lost from radar during an air raid to Syria the reason for that is probably not necessary be the cyber attack. The military forces around the world have been tested plasma-shields or so-called echo-radiation, which means that the radar impulses just turn away from the front of attacking aircraft. Plasma ionized gas is more effective for that purpose because it affects every frequency of radio transmitting.

And the target can be found by using laser scanners and other optical sensors. But things like computer viruses are also a very good way to increase the effect of things like radars. The program code can simply install or involve the radar transmitting, and that means that it would give more effect to that system if it can infect targeted things, but if the infection is not successful the radar can use to locate targets.
