NASA Awards AiRANACULUS $5M CCRPP Contract to Advance Lunar and Space Communications Networks
AiRANACULUS to partner with NASA Ames, Nokia Federal Solutions, NVIDIA, Dell Technologies, Curtiss-Wright, Supermicro and Radisys to advance autonomous heterogeneous networking technologies through space flight testing.
AiRANACULUS, a Massachusetts-based deep technology company focused on intelligent RF and autonomous networking systems, today announced that it has been awarded a $5 million Civilian Commercialization Readiness Pilot Program (CCRPP) contract from NASA. The effort will support technology development enabling next-generation heterogeneous communication networks for lunar and deep-space missions.
AiRANACULUS will enhance its Cross Layer Spectrum Aware Cognitive Control Plane and Intelligent Routing Engine (CLAIRE) and Intelligent Network Slicing and Policy-based Routing Engine (INSPiRE) technologies. These platforms are designed to improve performance, resilience and adaptability across complex communication environments. The work will be conducted in collaboration with NASA Ames Research Center and industry collaborators including NVIDIA, Nokia Federal Solutions, Dell Technologies, Curtiss-Wright, Supermicro and Radisys. The program will also include integrated testing and spaceflight validation activities.
