Image above: BAE Systems’ hardware-in-the-loop simulation environments build upon Spirent Federal signal generators to test products under extreme dynamic and threat environments
In a May 16, 2022, article entitled, “The Transition to M-Code Begins” on GPSWorld.com, Luke Bishop, director and product line engineering lead for Navigation & Sensor Systems at BAE Systems, outlined how BAE Systems uses Spirent Federal’s advanced signal simulation equipment.
An excerpt:
“We integrate Spirent Federal and other signal simulators in both our test and development environments, where modeled RF signals are coordinated with other sensor measurements and host vehicle messages for high-fidelity hardware-in-the-loop test cases. Our engineers create hundreds of test cases and scripted test procedures to exercise our products under all required conditions. These simulations allow us to run thousands of trials to qualify and validate performance of our products in extreme scenarios.”
