GPS/GNSS Testing for Positioning Applications
What are the Main Issues Around Performance Testing Across all GNSS Technology Areas?
GNSS technology and its applications are rapidly expanding. New and improved GPS, Galileo, GLONASS, QZSS, Compass and augmentation systems such as WAAS, LAAS, EGNOS and MSAS will add to the mix of available signals. A significant amount of research and development is currently underway by the technology and applications development community to respond to this expansion in capabilities.
Spirent Solves Your Critical Test Challenges.
The use of a GPS, GNSS or SBAS simulator enables controlled, repeatable performance testing at nominal and extreme or error state conditions. Only using an RF simulator is it possible to characterize fully receiver performance in all conditions. By integrating a simulator with other equipment it is possible to realistically test and optimize application performance and experiment with new technology areas.
