First Galileo PVT on Industrial GPS/Galileo OEM Receiver Platform
Septentrio is demonstrating a Galileo receiver providing position, velocity and time information (PVT) based on the European Galileo Satellite signals, at the ION GNSS conference in Fort Worth Texas. This is the first time ever that a satellite navigation receiver using Galileo signals demonstrates a full end-to-end capability to calculate position. AsteRx1, a compact single-frequency GNSS receiver for demanding industrial and professional applications incorporates capabilities for full use of the European Galileo L1 signal. Now for the first time, using a Spirent RF Galileo Constellation simulator, a full signal acquisition, tracking and position calculation using the Galileo L1 Open Service signals can be demonstrated. Septentrio and Spirent will demonstrate the performance of the AsteRx1 Galileo receiver using signals from a Spirent Galileo RF Constellation Simulator at the ION GNSS conference and exhibition, Booth F, Fort Worth, Tx, 27-29 September 2006.
