Systematic RF path testing

Test 1 and Test 2 are designed to evaluate GPS RF path performance in two configurations under controlled parameters.

Test 1 configuration:

• Spirent GSS6100 simulator at RF mon output connected to ceiling patch antenna at 2m distance from DUT

uBlox M8G EVK + stock antenna
uBlox M8G EVK + RhinoEdge antenna
ElephantEdge uBlox + on-board antenna
ElephantEdge LR1110 + on-board antenna
RhinoEdge LR1110 + on-board antenna
uBlox M8G EVK + 2J78 antena	41
RhinoEdge LR1110 + 2J78 antena	31
LR1110 EVK + on-board antenna	31

Test 2 configuration

• Spirent GSS6100 simulator main RF output, configured to TXP such that uBlox EVK C/N0 is around 40
