Orolia/Spectracom Ship New GPS Simulator for Manufacturing Test

Spectracom, a company of the Orolia Group and provider of practical test solutions for GPS and GNSS devices and systems, has announced the GSG-52, a GPS constellation simulator that provides the basic set of features for testing GNSS systems. With four channels, it can provide navigational fix and position testing, for in-line product testing or basic engineering and development testing.

Spectracom CTO, John Fischer, said, “We understand there is often a gap between development and production test tools, often due to cost-constraints in manufacturing. Even though our models GSG-54 and GSG-55 offer the speed and simplicity required in production environments, the GSG-52’s price point of under $10K will allow for greater applicability.”

Mr. Fischer added, “What’s more, we offer investment protection since the GSG-52 is fully upgradeable to the higher level of functionality at any time including increased channel count up to 16, receiver trajectory control, SBAS simulation, and more. In addition, to ensure continuity of our customer’s long term product test plans, the GSG-52 platform provides for an upgrade path for dual GPS + GLONASS receivers down the road.”
