Abstract:In recent years, with the development of spacecraft engineering, the application of GNSS navigation simulator field has increased, and the demand for miniaturized high-precision simulators has become increasingly prominent. At present, the mainstream navigation simulator in the market realizes the signal output from intermediate frequency to L-band through the RF module, and its RF module is large in size, highly customizable, and has low configuration flexibility. In this context, an upconversion optimization design is proposed, Taking the BD3 (B1C, B2a) navigation signal as an example, Utilizing RF A/D converter performance characteristics, used to move the spectrum to the corresponding specific frequency through key technologies such as interpolation filtering, multi-phase numerical control oscillator (NCO) and high-speed parallel series conversion, so as to realize the generation of navigation analog signal. Through the test of equipment performance indicators and the comparison of positioning accuracy with Spirent navigation simulator, it is shown that the self-developed simulator can provide high-quality and high-reliability navigation simulation signals to user terminals, and compared with traditional solutions, it has better structure, lower cost, more stable performance and more flexible configuration.
