Spirent Offered Commercial Test Capability
Summary
Spirent Communications plc (LSE:SPT), the world leader in global navigation satellite system (GNSS) testing and assurance solutions, via a beta interface implementation based on HAS ICD version 1.2. Developers need to be able test their devices against this service to ensure they can optimally capture the emerging capability when it becomes available. In February 2021, the European Union Agency for the Space Programme (EUSPA) awarded GMV with the contract for the implementation of the Galileo High Accuracy Data Generator (HADG), which will be the facility in charge of generating the high-accuracy corrections data to enable the provision of HAS. “The high accuracy, feature richness and flexibility of Spirent’s simulator platforms provides an ideal foundation for the testing of innovative Galileo services such as our recent Galileo HAS capability,” said David Calle, Section Head of Advance GNSS Services at GMV´s aerospace sector. Jan Ackermann, Spirent’s Director of Product Line Management said: “The high level of expertise and in-depth understanding of Galileo HAS within GMV provided important guidance as we implemented HAS on our simulation platform.
