SSR8000 GNSS Signal Recorder & Playback System

Capture, store, and replay real-world GNSS signals to reproduce complex navigation environments for receiver R&D testing, validation, certification-oriented workflows, and field-to-lab troubleshooting.

Field-to-lab signal reproduction
SSR8000 GNSS Signal Recorder and Playback System
Product Overview

Capture real GNSS signal environments and replay them under repeatable lab conditions.

SSR8000 series GNSS signal recorder and playback systems support real-time navigation signal acquisition, storage, and signal playback. The system can reproduce complex real-world GNSS signal environments, helping engineering teams conduct navigation product R&D testing, receiver validation, certification-oriented testing, and field-to-lab troubleshooting workflows.

SSR8000 belongs to the Signal Recording & Playback product family. It is different from a GNSS signal simulator: instead of generating synthetic signal scenarios from configured parameters, SSR8000 records actual field signal data and replays it in the laboratory for repeatable receiver evaluation.
