The project is led by Anu Jagannath, ANDRO chief scientist and chief research officer, and Jithin Jagannath, ANDRO chief scientist and chief technology officer. The lead project team at ANDRO also includes Senior Scientist Sabarish Krishna Moorthy, with support from Syracuse University professors Biao Chen and Pramod Varshney from the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. Their expertise contributes valuable insights into advanced signal processing and distributed systems modeling for the project.

The collaboration between ANDRO and Syracuse University showcases the power of academic-industry partnerships in tackling complex challenges. This collaboration has persisted for over 30 years and has benefited over the years from support from the Center for Advanced Systems and Engineering, a NYSTAR-designated Center for Advanced Technology. Under the STTR contract, the team is well-prepared to provide innovative solutions for both military and commercial applications. This venture aims to transform the landscape of intelligent spectrum technologies for various spectrum intelligence use cases.
