Simplifies comprehensive testing for the
complex PNT challenges of the future, delivering real-time feedback
for mission-critical testing scenarios
Spirent Communications plc (LSE:SPT), the leading provider of
test and assurance solutions for next-generation devices and
networks, today announced PNT X, its next-generation positioning,
navigation and timing (PNT) simulation system. Designed to deliver
unprecedented performance and flexibility in PNT simulation and
testing, PNT X offers the highest fidelity and most signal sources
in a single test platform to address the future of enhanced
autonomy, safety, efficiency, and precision.
As developers look beyond GNSS alone to address increasingly
complex positioning challenges, PNT X brings together signals
including L-band, S-band, and alternative navigation (AltNav)
signals, as well as industry-first Regional Military Protection
(RMP) support, into one innovative, compact, and flexible system.
With the power to run multiple signals from different PNT sources
concurrently, the new platform simplifies comprehensive testing,
delivering real-time feedback for mission-critical testing
scenarios.
"We have built PNT X with the future in mind,” said Adam Price,
Vice President of PNT Simulation at Spirent. “It’s designed to
leverage the best technologies for each application, ensuring our
customers can achieve deterministic testing at every stage of the
development cycle, while saving money and reducing lab footprint.
Most importantly, it can do all of this without compromising on
performance. It will enable users to support cutting-edge
application testing with more precision and simplicity than ever
before.”
PNT X brings together the broadest set of features and
capabilities needed to protect future generations of
mission-critical systems. These include the patented I/Q spatial
awareness capability, an enhanced controlled reception pattern
antenna (CRPA) testing interface, the highest available continuous
dynamic range for jamming evaluation, and a standard update rate of
2 kHz for hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) and high-dynamics vehicle
testing. Along with a host of other groundbreaking enhancements,
these make PNT X the world’s most advanced test solution for
mission-critical systems and NAVWAR robustness.
“An evolving and escalating NAVWAR threat landscape has made
comprehensive testing of layered PNT solutions an absolute
imperative,” said Rob VanBrunt, President/CEO at Spirent Federal.
“PNT X accelerates product development cycles, enabling defense
developers, governmental agencies, and aerospace enterprises to
deploy mission critical PNT solutions faster.”
Peter Terry-Brown, General Manager of Positioning at Spirent,
added, “It’s nearly 40 years since Spirent delivered the industry’s
first GPS signal generator, and today we are again leading the
industry in the shift from GNSS to PNT. As the latest milestone in
our commitment to support and propel the next generation of
PNT-reliant technologies, PNT X ensures our customers can continue
to deliver world-leading products that perform under all
conditions.”
