Realistic multipath and obscuration modeling

Verify PNT receiver performance in a true-to-life synthetic multipath and obscuration environment

Multipath and signal obscuration are one of the main sources of error in GNSS receivers, with observed multipath error ranging from a few meters to hundreds of meters. Accounting for these factors is vital in all GNSS-enabled applications.

Sim3D is an innovative 3D modeling system that creates a realistic environment for the testing of multipath and obscuration effects. Simulated GNSS signals interact with fully customizable models and environments, giving a level of detail, control, and realism not available in other solutions.

+
Flexibility
  • Use either real modeled or geo-typical environments
  • Wide range of models and materials available – including user-generated and externally imported
  • User-defined filtering algorithms
  • Supports static and dynamic scenarios
  • Import user antenna patterns – with RHCP/LHCP polarization
+
Capability
  • Supports all current civilian constellations and frequencies (L1/L2/L5)
  • Signal code, carrier and power manipulated by the specific environment
  • Up to 6 reflections per multipath signal
  • Simulate up to 31 multipaths per line-of-sight signal
  • Generate GNSS reception heat maps for mission planning in real-world environments
+
Integration
  • Integrate with either GSS9000 or GSS7000 platform
  • Supports hardware-in-the-loop setups
  • Can be incorporated in a zoned chamber configuration
