Abstract

A sensor receiver may include a Rydberg cell configured to be exposed to a radio frequency (RF) signal, and a probe source configured to generate a plurality of spaced apart pulsed probe beams within the Rydberg cell. The pulsed probe beams may be offset in time from one another. A plurality of excitation sources may be coupled to the Rydberg cell. A detector may be positioned downstream from the Rydberg cell.
