For over 35 years, Spirent has been chosen by NASA and other space agencies to provide leading edge test solutions. Spirent GNSS solutions and expertise will support testing of the GNSS receivers intended to be deployed in NASA’s Artemis program for lunar exploration. Read press release.
Spirent Federal Systems is collaborating with Xona Space Systems to develop simulation and test capabilities for Xona signals produced by small satellites (smallsats) operating in low Earth orbit (LEO). Learn more.
The space and sector benefits from Spirent Federal’s expertise in generating high fidelity RF signals using quadrature (I/Q) data. Spirent test tools allow the full customization of I/Q data. Customers can generate unique I/Q data corresponding to experimental modulation schemes and use Spirent Federal’s signal generation capabilities to create the corresponding RF.
SimORBIT is the first high-accuracy orbital modeling software solution developed specifically for Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite simulation. Created in partnership with spaceborne receiver developer SpacePNT, Spirent SimORBIT enables developers to calculate LEO orbits and their distinctive characteristics more precisely and realistically for GNSS/PNT testing.
