Magnus,
Most GPS simulators only have an OCXO in them which are not very good for making precision timing measurements. The simulator needs to have a rubidium in it or have an external input for a more precision frequency source.

John,

I would advice you to look at what Spirent and Pendulum can offer you with regards to GPS simulators. The Pendulum GPS simulation should be of interest as it is a fairly decent cost, where as the Spirent equipment is really really good. One way to characterize PPS properties is to do it against a GPS simulator, which would allow you to remove some uncertainties compared to live signal.

Said's pointers are indeed a good start, so I only wanted to give an extra dimension which you might need.

Cheers,
Magnus
