SatGen v3 software is now available for the LabSat GNSS simulator by Racelogic. Version 3 includes BeiDou (BDS) in addition to GPS and GLONASS.
SatGen is billed as a powerful and intuitive software package that gives users the ability to create scenarios for replay through any LabSat simulator. The software creates either user-generated or imported trajectory files for use with a LabSat simulator.
The addition of the BeiDou B1 signals means that users can now test a device’s effectiveness as if it were being used within the operating area of the Chinese constellation, which at present only provides full coverage in Asia.
The BeiDou constellation is set to become globally operational by 2020. With the new SatGen v3, users can create scenarios that include signals from satellites yet to be launched, so new products can be developed in readiness for the full constellation.
SatGen v3 can produce scenarios with one, two or three sets of signals being simultaneously output: GPS, GLONASS and now BeiDou. The software now matches the record and replay abilities of the LabSat 3 simulator.
A trial of SatGen is available here. To purchase a full copy contact a LabSat distributor.
