Some efforts were put on replaying GPS signal <http://sdr-x.github.io/Some%20efforts%20and%20tools%20on%20GPS%20signal%20replay%20%28GPS%E9%87%8D%E6%94%BE%E6%A8%A1%E6%8B%9F%29/>, but it is only partially successful, not fully successful. Some tools/scripts, as side products, are useful. Learn many things from here: http://www.aholme.co.uk/GPS/Main.htm
*WARNING：DO NOT SEND ANY REAL GPS SIGNAL. USE CHAMBER AND CLOSE-LOOP CABLE! MAKE SURE ALL YOUR OPERATIONS ARE LEGAL!* Get codes, program and sample GPS signals here: https://github.com/JiaoXianjun/GNSS-GPS-SDR To build the C program "gps_test" in "c" directory (front part of software GPS receiver) after you get the whole repo: cd c make To let this make smooth, make sure you have fftw library installed correctly (sudo apt-get install ...). There should be /usr/lib/libfftw.a. 1. offline GPS simulation method 1.1 use C program "gps_test" to receive GPS signal generated by Matlab script gps_sig_gen.m *a*. generate GPS signal file by running gps_sig_gen.m in Matlab gps_sig_gen.m to get file gps_sig_tmp.bin *b*. use "gps_test" program to do some initial demodulation and check C/A codes: gps_test gps_sig_tmp.bin 2.046e6 8.184e6 5000 Above program gps_test performs initial GPS signal capture by multi-bins correlation in frequency domain. gps_sig_tmp.bin: input GPS signal generated by gps_sig_gen.m (MATLAB). 2.046e6: carrier frequency 8.184e6: sampling rate 5000: maximum frequency offset for frequency searching You will find that C/A codes results are aligned with GPS signal we generate by Matlab script. 1.2 use C program "gps_test" to receive GPS signal captured by others instead of my our Matlab script gps_sig_gen.m gps_test gps.samples.1bit.I.fs5456.if4092.bin 4.092e6 5.456e6 5000 gps.samples.1bit.I.fs5456.if4092.bin: captured by others and can be downloaded here: http://www.jks.com/gps/gps.html You will find C/A codes results are equal to those shown here: http://www.jks.com/gps/gps.html 2. over the air GPS test method 2.1 playback gps.samples.1bit.I.fs5456.if4092.bin( http://www.jks.com/gps/gps.html ) *a*. run gps_bin1bit_log2bin.m in Matlab to generate playback file for HACKRF (they capture GPS signal with 1bit quantization. we convert it to 8bit format which is needed by HACKRF): gps.samples.8bit.IQ.fs5456.baseband.bin *b*. run gps_Nottingham.grc to playback gps.samples.8bit.IQ.fs5456.baseband.bin over the air. And meanwhile/immediately, *c*. use rtl-sdr to capture signal: rtl_sdr -g 60 -f 1575.42e6 -s 2.8e6 -n 19.2e6 rtl_2.8Msps_1575.42MHz.bin *d*. run proc_rtl_bin_for_gps('rtl_2.8Msps_1575.42MHz.bin') in Matlab to convert 8bit file to 1bit file which is needed by gps_test program：rtl_2.8Msps_1575.42MHz_1bit.bin *e*. see C/A codes initial capture result by running gps_test program: gps_test rtl_2.8Msps_1575.42MHz_1bit.bin 0.62e6 2.8e6 100000 You will find C/A codes results are equal to those shown here: http://www.jks.com/gps/gps.html 2.2 playback gps_sig_tmp_for_hackrf_tx.bin (generated by gps_sig_gen.m) to air by gps.grc. *a*. run gps.grc to playback gps_sig_tmp_for_hackrf_tx.bin over the air. And meanwhile/immediately, *b*. capture air GPS signal by: rtl_sdr -g 60 -f 1574.8e6 -s 2.8e6 -n 19.2e6 rtl_2.8Msps_1574.8MHz.bin *c*. convert captured 8bit file to 1bit bin file which is needed by gps_test: rtl_2.8Msps_1574.8MHz_1bit.bin proc_rtl_bin_for_gps('rtl_2.8Msps_1574.8MHz.bin'); (MATLAB) *d*. RUN: gps_test rtl_2.8Msps_1574.8MHz_1bit.bin 0.62e6 2.8e6 100000 to see GPS signal capture result: C/A codes are supposed to align with our expectation (Matlab script). *e*. you can also capture air GPS signal with different intermediate frequency by: rtl_sdr -g 60 -f 1575.42e6 -s 2.8e6 -n 19.2e6 rtl_2.8Msps_1575.42MHz.bin *f*. convert captured 8bit file to 1bit bin file which is needed by gps_test: rtl_2.8Msps_1575.42MHz_1bit.bin proc_rtl_bin_for_gps('rtl_2.8Msps_1575.42MHz.bin'); (MATLAB) *g*. RUN: gps_test rtl_2.8Msps_1575.42MHz_1bit.bin 0.62e6 2.8e6 100000 to see GPS signal capture result: C/A codes are supposed to align with our expectation (Matlab script).
