- Interfaces with most IFF ramp test equipment
- EMI gasketing eliminates stray transmissions and interference
- Provides >20 dB of antenna isolation
- <1 dB repeatability
- Supports GPS antennas up to 14 inches in diameter
- Rugged design for ramp use
- System - Simulated 3D position may be user entered in latitude/longitude/height format or 3D position may be dynamically simulated utilizing a multi-leg waypoint entry scheme. An unlimited number of navigation plans may be saved and recalled under a user assigned name. A built-in GPS receiver allows positional simulation in the form of a range, heading and altitude based on current test set position.
- Satellite Vehicle (SV) Selection - All GPSG-1000 configurations allow GPS and Galileo satellites to be mixed. (The Galileo codes may be updated via a text file upload.)
- Waypoints - Waypoint legs join up in 3D space, with either range rate or altitude-rate being auto calculated. Trajectory changes are calculated to simulate real world navigation, i.e. waypoint leg heading changes utilize realistic rates of turn; altitude changes utilize realistic rates of descent or climb. Way points may be entered in LAT/LONG form or automatically recalled from an airport or city database.
- SBAS - SBAS satellites WAAS/EGNOS may be manually selected or automatically based on simulated position.
- Setup - The setup page allows system, user and RF connection parameters to be set by the user.
