Spirent® Communications launches new GPS/Galileo/GLONASS simulation system
Spirent GSS8000 Offers Unsurpassed Capability, Flexibility and Fidelity in a Single Unit
Spirent Communications plc (LSE: SPT), the leading provider of navigation and positioning test solutions, today announced the launch of its new Spirent GSS8000 simulation system, a signal generator unit for GPS, Galileo and GLONASS testing. The Spirent GSS8000 tests advanced satellite navigation technologies and offers enhanced capability, increased flexibility and improved signal fidelity.
With the introduction of Spirent GSS8000, Spirent continues to improve the accuracy and dynamic capabilities of its GNSS simulators. This new solution supports processing rates as low as 4 ms with pseudorange accuracy at 1 mm for many scenarios. The Spirent GSS8000 design allows for a wide variety of configurations from GPS L1 right up to comprehensive multi-RF output and/or multi-constellation test systems.
“The Spirent GSS8000 raises the bar for GNSS test in terms of capability and accuracy” said John Pottle, marketing director for Spirent’s Positioning Technology division. “It offers class-leading signal accuracy in all areas as well as the flexibility and scalability that our customers are looking for.”
Simulation of GPS, Galileo and GLONASS signals is acknowledged as the best way of testing Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receivers, systems and application performance. Only laboratory simulation can ensure controlled repeatable testing that explores both nominal and off-design conditions. By following a structured test approach, our customers can test multi-GNSS receivers, systems and applications resulting in shorter development times and improved performance.

Each month we select a hot topic and a leading figure in the industry to write about it.HAVE WE REALLY LEARNT THE LESSONS FROM LAST YEAR’S FLOODS?
Flooding costs associated with extreme weather, both financial and emotional, have increased considerably over the last decade, and experts have predicted this trend is set to continue.
Paul Livett, Chairman of GroundSure looks into how increasing the use of flood risk information in property transactions can help to ensure both residential and commercial transactions are conducted on a truly informed basis, with buyers being made aware of environmental risks prior to purchase.
Over 2.2 million homes and small businesses in the UK are located in areas considered at risk of flooding, and the Association of British Insurers (ABI) has said that 570,000 of these face a high risk of flooding. The floods in June and July last year left approximately 48,000 households… More…
