Abstract

Wireless devices supporting global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) services have become an essential tool in different areas of technology such as agriculture, construction, automotive, etc. Therefore the performance and reliability of such devices are important aspects that need to be addressed in the testing stage during the development of the units. The integration of the Over-the-Air (OTA) testing method with the 3D Wave Field Synthesis (3DWFS) technique offer not only the benefit of having tests under controllable and repeatable conditions but also the ability to recreate complex and realistic scenarios in a controlled environment with full polarimetric support for the testing of wireless devices. This contribution applies this technology to emulate a GNSS scenario within an anechoic chamber. For the results validation, a realistic GNSS outdoor scenario was recorded and compared with the emulated scenario where 3DWFS was applied for each individual satellite. This represents a significant step for the GNSS community and also for the future development and testing of wireless devices.
