What is the recommended power level and C/No setting to verify the functionality of the LC_1x1 using a GPS simulator?
The LC_1x1 GPS receiver can work with a wide range of GPS signal levels. For initial testing, a strong signal level of around -120 dBm is sufficient to verify the antenna connection.
The Carrier-to-Noise Ratio (C/No) values, which can be checked using the SYST:STAT? or GPGSV output, should remain consistent within a few dB during testing.
While there is no direct conversion between signal strength and C/No values, typical values can be determined through experimental testing. This ensures that the receiver is functioning properly and the antenna connection is stable.
