The choice of antenna for recording and replaying scenarios during testing is crucial to the accuracy and relevance of the tests.
LabSat record and replay simulation systems are supplied with magnetic active ‘patch’ antennas. These antennas are active and are not suitable for rebroadcasting to a receiver with an internal antenna.
Most countries have regulations regarding the retransmission of signals, and you must be aware of the local rules that apply to your testing system.
Racelogic has a small selection of rebroadcast antennas available. These must be used in an RF-screened environment.
To assist with testing of internal antenna devices, Racelogic also supply a LabSat GNSS Test Enclosure for use with devices that have internal antennas, such as Smartphones and Satellite navigation devices.
When recording GNSS signals with LabSat systems, the antenna must have a suitable ground plane, such as a car roof. We always advise using the antenna from the application or device you are testing. If the antenna is a passive antenna, placed next to the receiver in the device, you may need to use an LNA to boost the power and cover the signal loss of the cable connected to the device under test (DUT).
