Spirent Communications has made improvements to customer support capabilities across the world. In Asia, Spirent has added dedicated support facility for its Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) test systems, based out of the existing Spirent offices in Beijing, P. R. China. This new facility enhances Spirent’s existing support offices in USA and Europe. The new support facility provides technical support for customers across Asia as well as a local calibration and repair services. Further investment in support equipment has also benefited Spirent Federal’s existing support capabilities in Fort Worth, TX. A dedicated suite of test equipment has been commissioned in Fort Worth, similar to the Verification Office facilities recently announced by Spirent in the UK. This improved facility enables improved identification, localization and resolution of customer reported issues.
Toss in, as well, that Spirent Federal Systems has just delivered the first SDS M-code simulation systems to Raytheon, El Segundo, and Rockwell Collins, Cedar Rapids, in support of their Modernized User Equipment (MUE) Receiver Card Development contracts with the Global Positioning Systems (GPS) Wing and you’ve got quite a news day for the company. The Spirent GSS7700 series GPS simulator has a fully approved classified package, integrated interference/jamming signal generation, Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) M-code and Simulator Data Sets (SDS) M-code capabilities that already received the Global Positioning Systems Wing security approval in June 2007.
The SDS M-code simulators that Spirent Federal delivered include a new SDS server unit and an advanced GSS7700 signal generator. The SDS server provides storage for the SDS files, processes streams of data from the SDS files in real-time, and transmits the SDS data to the GSS7700 signal generator. The GSS7700 signal generator integrates the SDS data with all other simulated signals to produce integrated RF output. The new SDS capabilities are fully integrated into Spirent’s comprehensive and user-friendly SimGEN user interface — they operate simultaneously with all of the other capabilities of the GSS770 simulator—Yorba Linda, California
