Production testing capability

The necessity for high quality signal generation to test GNSS products in a production environment is often overlooked.
Spirent produces a range of high quality, high reliability signal generation equipment for this purpose.

Commercial products from mobile handsets to in-car navigation systems need to be tested using consistent, reliable and accurate signal sources in order to ensure a consistent high quality product leaves your factory Production testing also needs to be fast, reliable and cost effective.

Spirent production test GPS simulators have been developed with the demands of manufacturing in mind and support single-channel or multi-channel testing, including GPS L1/L2, with the minimum of operator intervention.

For A-GPS testing, assistance data consistent with the test scenario is available. The majority of satellite navigation applications utilise the GPS C/A code. To this end Spirent offer a number of units for the Commercial and Production markets.

		Ref. GSS6300 In many production environments, a single channel GNSS signal simulator is the preferred way to ensure that each device meets defined parameters. The Spirent GSS6300 is designed specifically for high volume manufacturing test applications for devices that include a GPS L1 C/A code receiver or GALILEO E1 or GLONASS L1 More details

		Ref. GSS4200 Some production environments, however, need the flexibility to switch between single channel and multi-channel test modes. The GSS4200 unit offers 6 channels of GPS L1 C/A code to allow a positional fix with representative satellite dynamics and data as part of the production test. For assisted GPS (A-GPS) applications, the assistance data for each scenario is available. More details

		Ref. GSS7735 While the GSS6100 and GSS4200 are well placed to test the majority of GPS receivers, there is also a need to test dual frequency receivers in a production or field facility The Spirent multi-channel GSS7735 has been designed specifically for testing dual-frequency L1 C/A code + P code and L2 P code GPS equipment and sensors in such military manufacturing environments.
