Research interests

Professor Cathryn Mitchell is an academic at the University of Bath and a Royal Society Industry Fellow with Spirent Communications on “the Future of Position, Navigation and Timing (PNT)”.  She is a member of Bath’s Space, Telecommunications and Atmospheres Research Group (STAR). 

STAR conducts theoretical, computational and experimental research which has a range of science applications from space weather to climate monitoring and study of the solar-terrestrial environment, including the Earth’s ionosphere, atmosphere and oceans.  STAR’s research also has important practical applications for communication, surveillance radars and navigation systems. The group was originally established in 1998 and has delivered research and technology products for many companies and sponsors in the UK and overseas including for research council and industry and collaborate closely with UK research laboratories, including projects for the defence and commercial sectors. 

 

Professor Mitchell’s interests and expertise include GNSS navigation and timing, tomography (data assimilation), HF communications and radio propagation. Professor Mitchell’s research with Spirent Communications is focussed on complementary PNT technologies; LEO Navigation; Space Weather and the Future of Space Navigation.
