Which would help a bit for timing in this case.

It’s the coordination part that gets “interesting”. It requires more effort on 
both ends than one might think. Without getting into politics, that might be 
less practical with some of the other systems.

Recall that beyond GPS, GLONASS, GALILEO and Big Dipper (COMPASS) you 
also have WAAS/EGNOS and other SBAS (Satellite Based Augmentation Systems).


If you open up all of them, there is a lot of signals in the air.
Also, GPS L2C and L5 signals is already there.

There are at least 2 satellites radiating L5, maybe more.  We've 
received and processed the signals (and those from L2c) on the JPL 
software receiver on ISS. (making a first.. first triband receiver in 
space, etc.)


I'm pretty sure the L2c signals have been radiated for a while. If 
they're not marked good, it's probably because the formal validation 
process hasn't completed.


(in fact, a quick trip to gps.gov says for L2C Pre-operational signal 
broadcasting from 14 GPS satellites (as of November 7, 2014) and for L5 
Pre-operational signal broadcasting from 7 GPS satellites (as of 
November 7, 2014)


So, not a whole constellation, but the signals are there.

There is at least 7 of them now. See this message on 18 Sep:

All CGSIC:
The seventh GPS-IIF satellite, SVN-68/PRN-09, launched on 02 August 
2014, was set to healthy and usable last night.  This brings the number 
of satellites transmitting the L2C signal to 14 and those transmitting 
the L5 signal to 07.  The next GPS-IIF satellite, IIF-8/SVN-69 is 
tentatively scheduled for launch on 29 Oct 2014.


So I expect there to be 8 by now.


Also L2C is still marked as unhealthy.

Hi Dick,

Its available for everyone. It will be as global as GPS. But currently
under a system test phase. Three working satellites, one of the first four
has some problems. Whats the status of that one now? Two new launched in
August experienced a faulty orbit injection.

   http://ec.europa.eu/enterprise/policies/satnav/galileo/index_en.htm

Should be more usable in a year or two. Will have performance much like
GPSIII.

 It's a global system and modern receivers are already capable of augmenting
 GPS solutions with measurements from Galileo satellites.

I've seen lots of comments about units that will use other than GPS 
satellites, but I don't think I've seen any actual output from one of them.  
Is that just a gap in my toy collection or has reality not caught up with the 
marketing hype?  (Or perhaps I just haven't looked in the right place/time.)

Typical low cost GPS receivers send out NMEA which includes a list of 
satellite alt/az and SNR based on the SVN (satellite virtual number, or 
something like that).  How are the Galileo and other satellites going to show 
up in that?  Is there an official plan for something like 1dd for Galileo, 
2dd for Glasnost, and ...?

These are my opinions.  I hate spam.

 Is that just a gap in my toy collection or has reality not caught up with the

They are out there

 
 Typical low cost GPS receivers send out NMEA which includes a list of 
 satellite alt/az and SNR based on the SVN (satellite virtual number, or 
 something like that).  How are the Galileo and other satellites going to show 
 up in that?  Is there an official plan for something like 1dd for Galileo, 
 2dd for Glasnost, and …?

Typically they let you selectively enable each of the major systems. As you 
enable more systems, you get more sat’s in each of the messages. For most 
users, there is not a lot of reason to enable multiple systems. If you want UTC 
sync’d to USNO you enable one system. If you want to set your watch to time 
from Moscow, you enable another system …. Setting your watch to both is 
impractical.

Time-nuts will buy multiple, enable one major system on each, and
compare, and draw ADEV plots!

Running one locked to each system is really the only approach that makes sense. 
There inevitably are minor differences in systems and trying to average things 
out is not the best way to do it.

Anybody have suggestions for a low cost receiver to run that test?

Low cost … hmmm …. The stuff we normally buy is surplus / used. That makes it 
the 10 cents or 1 cent on the dollar that we’re used to paying. This stuff (by 
definition) is brand new and fresh on the market. 


 LTE-Lite will do QZSS .. might not have sat’s overhead in your location :)

Google suggests:

Meinberg has the GLN180PEX that will do Glonass timing

Teseo-3 / Teseo-2 do various constellations

uBlox 6 claims GPS / Glonass / QZSS

http://www.u-blox.com/images/downloads/Product_Docs/u-blox6-GPS-GLONASS-QZSS-V14_ReceiverDescriptionProtocolSpec_Public_(GPS.G6-SW-12013).pdf

A bunch of Garmin stuff will do Glonass 

https://support.garmin.com/support/searchSupport/case.faces?caseId=%7Ba3bcf150-1fa1-11e1-73d0-%7D

Furuno GT-87 has Glonass and QZSS

NovAtel OEM6 has Glonass, Galileo, and BeiDou

Hello,
One vendor we starts nimea strings with BD and GN instead of GP ie 
$GPGGA,blab, blab becomes $BDGGA,blab and $GNGGA,blab

If all systems are selected and the receiver has enough of each system you can 
have up to three $*GGA messages per update.

Re: [time-nuts] FYI: Galileo satellite recovered and transmitting navigation signals

2014-12-05 Thread David J Taylor

From: Hal Murray

I've seen lots of comments about units that will use other than GPS
satellites, but I don't think I've seen any actual output from one of them.
Is that just a gap in my toy collection or has reality not caught up with 
the

marketing hype?  (Or perhaps I just haven't looked in the right place/time.)

Hal,

The GLONASS satellites show on my Moto-G phone with the GPS Status program. 
They have numbers from 64 upwards.  As yet I have not looked for or seen any 
Galileo satellites.  Some recent u-blox units should see GLONASS but I don't 
think my LTE-Lite has a way of setting that (please tell me I'm wrong) and 
the recently mentioned Reyax module should also be able to do this:


 http://www.reyax.com/Module/GPS/RY825AI/RY825AI.pdf

I've yet to power mine up.

Cheers,
David
