The PULSAR production signals from Xona Space Systems have been successfully incorporated by Spirent Communications to allow for a smooth integration into the SimXona product line.
After close cooperation, Xona and Spirent report that the PULSAR X1 production signal implementation has passed a rigorous Xona certification.
It is anticipated that the PULSAR X5 signal verification procedure will be completed and certified in the summer of 2024. Orders for SimXona with production signals capabilities may now be placed with Spirent.
A high-performance positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) service called PULSAR is being developed by Xona. It is based on a network of tiny, low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellites.
By enhancing global navigation satellite systems (GNSS), like GPS, with Xona’s proprietary high-powered smallsat signals, PNT accuracy and robustness will be increased while maintaining an autonomous navigation and timing system architecture. With the successful completion of its series A fundraising, Xona is now fully financed to launch the In-Orbit Validation mission, a production-class satellite, in 2025.
Leading supplier of PNT test solutions, Spirent just introduced PNT X, a sixth-generation simulation system. SimXona is natively implemented in PNT X, an all-in-one solution for navigation warfare (NAVWAR) testing.
“We’re excited to certify Spirent’s SimXona offering and enable the PNT community with highly trusted test solutions. We look forward to continuing to work closely with Spirent to advance LEO PNT solutions for end users,” said Bryan Chan, VP of Strategy at Xona Space Systems.
“At Spirent, we are committed to fostering innovation in the PNT sector by providing cutting-edge and high-performance test solutions to the market,” stated Jan Ackermann, Director of Product Management at Spirent Communications. “SimXona, and the diligence applied by both teams during the certification process, embodies this commitment.”
