N-CUBE
GNSS SDR Payload
The N-CUBE comes as a unique solution that combines GNSS signal processing and RF front ends for Cube and Nano satellites.
It implements the latest state-of-the-art positioning and synchronization techniques, to reach top-class performances for Real-Time Precise On-board Orbit Determination (P2OD) and accurate time synchronization. N-CUBE can synchronize from different GNSS systems including GPS, GALILEO and BEIDOU. Its synchronization process is GALILEO autonomous with no need of GPS pre-synchronization.
N-CUBE embeds two parallel GNSS transmitters (featuring RF amplifiers), one in L-Band and one in S-Band. This authorizes to implement GNSS signal re-transmission as required for instance for Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Positioning, Navigation & Timing (PNT) service applications. Its Software-Defined-Radio (SDR) core architecture brings maximum flexibility and enables implementation of specific software-based processing to address a wide range of applications.
