Key facts

  • Multi-constellation, multi-frequency and multi-antenna scenarios
  • GNSS + interference in one box
  • GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, Galileo, NavIC, SBAS, QZSS with up to 612 channels
  • Realistic GNSS error modeling 
  • Moving scenarios and integration in HiL/ViL environments

Realistic and repeatable GNSS scenarios

For production testing, RX characterization and testing for GNSS threats

Vector signal generators from Rohde & Schwarz have several GNSS options available that can turn them into reliable, full-featured GNSS signal sources. Their advanced simulation capabilities enable the configuration of realistic, complex yet repeatable GNSS scenarios that can be run under controlled conditions. This includes realistic modeling of GNSS orbits, signal propagation  effects and system errors as well as realistic modeling of the user environment.

Features & benefits

Test like it's real

Realistic GNSS scenarios

GNSS simulators from Rohde & Schwarz have highly realistic scenarios that take into account all important signal propagation, user environment and system characteristics such as:

  • Orbit and clock errors
  • Tropospheric and ionospheric effects
  • Signal obscuration and multipath
  • Antenna gain and phase patterns
  • Vehicle motion and vehicle attitude
  • Pseudo-range steps and ramps for RAIM testing

Pseudo-range ramps can be used for testing receiver autonomous integrity monitoring (RAIM) features.

Simulation vs. live testing

A case for GNSS simulators

Signal generators have major advantages in GNSS simulations. When applying live signals, test conditions can change permanently and unpredictably, making repeatable testing impossible. GNSS testing solutions from Rohde & Schwarz provide well-defined, controlled conditions for GNSS simulations. The scenarios are fully customizable and repeatable, allowing a test scenario to be replayed as often as needed, while producing the same signals with the same characteristics.

The R&S®SMW200A can generate GNSS signals and other signals simultaneously, making it ideal for advanced GNSS testing .

GNSS & interference in one box

Testing for coexistence signals, jamming and spoofing

GNSS simulators from Rohde & Schwarz can have an internal noise generator to add well-defined noise or even a CW interferer to GNSS signals. GNSS signals can also be combined with other digital standards, such as LTE or even pulsed signals, enabling the setup of complex coexistence scenarios to test receiver resilience against unwanted interference or jamming attacks.

Scenario configuration made easy

Integrated simulation software

GNSS simulators from Rohde & Schwarz come with integrated simulation software that allows
simulation configuration, monitoring and interactive control on a
large touchscreen. Simulation data can be logged for postprocessing. No external
PC is required to configure scenarios. Scenario generation can be fully automated with extensive remote control capabilities.
