SiGe GN3S Sampler v3 GPS data analyzer
The GN3S sampling v3 is a very interesting high-end research equipment . TheGNSS Rumsfeld Colorado andSiGe University to develop , this USB device captures raw GPS data to a binary file on your computer. This device will not tell you the location , like the rest of us to solve the GPS module. Instead , GN3S sampling is designed to capture the low-level signals directly to the data ( raw IF sampling ) is transported through the GPS satellite network and RF front-end processing of silicon germanium.
3rd edition , the latest sampler, continue to use the ASIC silicon germanium 4120 Global Positioning System. However, this latest version supports Windows 7 as well as about the latest libusb Windows XP built-in driver. It also enables a plurality of data collection options in terms of bandwidth ( wide, narrow , in order to better capture the new Galileo E1 O / S signal ) and sampling frequencies.Furthermore range , while an earlier version of the sampling depth limits to avoid stable , this version will remove any and all restrictions of data records . However, there are enough computers still need continuous data recording .
This device is used in conjunction with the book recommendation : a software-defined GPS and Galileo receiver. This excellent book will give you the mathematical basis of GPS -based software and source code on the DVD. Accompanying MATLAB source code can be used to collect the data crunch to resolve the position . This low -level processing to provide users with a keen insight into the signal processing of a GPS receiver. Algorithm modifications provided to encourage users to try and improve the design of the next generation of GPS receivers .
Of course, in earlier versions, all of the source code ( drivers, firmware , applications ) is still available .
Note:
You will need an external GPS antenna and MCX terminate active miniUSB cable to operate GN3S Sampler - both of which are listed below.
