You can have the most expensive, highest-definition television money can buy, but if you pair it with a poor antenna you will be throwing away the benefit of all that costly performance. This philosophy is no less true for GNSS systems. This Application Note explains why modelling the performance of your GNSS system’s antenna is important, and how to accomplish it with your Spirent GNSS simulator.
