Abstract :
From high speed missile to air fighter plane,
everywhere, consumer is operating a Global Positioning
System (GPS) navigation system in routine services and
GPS technology is being used in a wide variety of
applications. As new innovation continues to drive GPS
receivers for better performance, software techniques are
widely adopted to characterize & validate their
performance against industry standard benchmarks for
higher precision and better accuracy.
The aim of this research work is to study & explore
the need of an automated testing tool for enhancing GNSS
receiver’s validation, performance and key metrics.
Presently, the receiver devices are manually tested with the
configuration made on simulator for checking the
Graphical User Interface (GUI)/output of receiver device.
Hence, it is evident that there is need to develop an
automated application testing device which removes the
manual intervention and at the same time provide easily
verifiable test results on the dynamic test setup made in
simulator without any manual intervention.
The software application, emphasizes on the
approaches to automate a variety of GNSS receiver
performance measurements including sensitivity, noise
figure, position accuracy, and position deviation, in future
and captures the real time navigational signal and generate
various metric oriented graphs.
Keywords :
GPS, GNSS, NavIC, IRNSS, NMEA, DOP, CNR.
