Agilent has launched a new piece of GPS receiver verification software, it has announced.

The scientific instrument provider explained that the N7609B Signal Studio for Global Navigation Satellite Systems software is designed to work with its PXB baseband generator and channel emulator platform.

It is also the only 24-channel, 12-satellite signal simulator that is built on a general-purpose, high-performance signal generator, providing a repeatable and reliable test solution for the validation and verification of GPS receivers.

“As an added benefit, the N7609B software with PXB/MXG can be combined with Agilent’s 8960 Wireless Communications Test Set in the GS-9000 A-GPS Design Verification Test System for complete A-GPS pre-conformance test coverage,” the firm commented.

The launch of the new product comes after Agilent and the Dow Chemical Company celebrated 20 years of technical collaboration, noting that the first time they worked together was enhance the impact of gas chromatography in the analytical and measurement sector.
