Technical collaboration with GMV provides
simulation testing solution for early adopters
Spirent Communications plc (LSE:SPT), the world leader in global
navigation satellite system (GNSS) testing and assurance solutions,
today announced the launch of the industry’s first commercially
available simulation test solution for the Galileo High Accuracy
Service (HAS), via a beta interface implementation based on HAS ICD
version 1.2. During the development of the solution, Spirent
collaborated with GMV, a leader in cutting-edge GNSS high-accuracy
technologies.
Galileo HAS will provide free-of-charge high-accuracy Precise
Point Positioning corrections through the Galileo E6-B signal, with
accuracy under two decimeters, offering real-time improved user
positioning performance. Developers need to be able test their
devices against this new service to ensure they can optimally
capture the emerging capability when it becomes available. By
integrating HAS simulation and capabilities, Spirent’s latest
simulation solution enables customers to utilize and incorporate
Galileo HAS as early as possible.
In February 2021, the European Union Agency for the Space
Programme (EUSPA) awarded GMV with the contract for the
implementation of the Galileo High Accuracy Data Generator (HADG),
which will be the facility in charge of generating the
high-accuracy corrections data to enable the provision of HAS.
Spirent’s collaboration with GMV will prove a key element in the
early adoption of the service.
“The high accuracy, feature richness and flexibility of
Spirent’s simulator platforms provides an ideal foundation for the
testing of innovative new Galileo services such as our recent
Galileo HAS capability,” said David Calle, Section Head of Advance
GNSS Services at GMV´s aerospace sector.
Jan Ackermann, Spirent’s Director of Product Line Management
said: “The high level of expertise and in-depth understanding of
Galileo HAS within GMV provided important guidance as we
implemented HAS on our simulation platform. This enabled us to
again be the first in the industry to offer a commercial solution
to simulate and test these important new capabilities.”
