LabSat SatGen GNSS Product Upgraded to Include BeiDou Signals

SatGen V3 software now available for use on LabSat 3 simulators

LabSat has launched a new version of its SatGen V3 software package that enables users to create scenarios for replay through any LabSat simulator and now includes BeiDou.

The software creates either user-generated or imported trajectory files for use with a LabSat GNSS simulator. The addition of the BeiDou B1 signals means that users can now test a device’s design and performance as if it were being used within the operating area of the Chinese GNSS constellation – which at present only provides full coverage in Asia.

The BeiDou constellation is set to become globally operational by 2020, but the new version of SatGen can create scenarios that include signals from satellites yet to be launched, enabling companies to develop new products 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 fully compatible with triple-constellation LabSat 3 simulators, according to Racelogic/LabSat.
