GOOSE©

GNSS RECEIVER WITH OPEN SOFTWARE INTERFACE
GPS | Galileo | GLONASS | BeiDou | SBAS

The GOOSE platform is an FPGA based GNSS receiver. It is therefore flexible in processing new or proprietary signals.
It comprises 60 hardware channels in real time and provides an open software interface for customer applications.
GOOSE grants deep access to the hardware interface, down to e.g. integrate and dump value levels. Additionally, the intermediate frequency signals can be recorded, processed and replayed with the platform.

GOOSE is meant as a rapid prototyping solution for the development of state of the art GNSS receivers.
The platform is dedicated to software developers, mobile communication operators, and system developers. Four separate components characterize the platform: a multi-frequency GNSS antenna, an analogue-frontend board, a baseband board, and the processor system.

Special capabilities

  • Anti-Spoofing resilience thanks to the implementation of Galileo OSNMA
  • Adaptable automatic anti-Jamming filter in the baseband
  • Direct acquisition of E5/L5 including Galileo E5 AltBOC
  • Integration of NavIC S-band or Galileo E6BC in GOOSEv2
  • Integrated Tensor processor (up to 4 TOPS) for machine learning and AI processing

Main benefits

  • Flexible development platform with multi-system and multi-signal real-time processing
  • Digital recording of intermediate frequency (IF) signals for SDR algorithm evaluation (post-processing)
  • Analytic preprocessing of recorded IF-signals for replay:
    – Insertion of Jamming and Spoofing
    – Mitigation of Jamming by Notch-Filter or Pulse-Blanker
  • Digital Replay of IF-signals for easy and real-time repeatable tests
  • Guaranteed stable phase center for all GNSS frequencies
  • Deployment in commercial PC or as an embedded platform
  • Allows deep coupling and vector tracking in real time
  • Extendable for meta signals
  • Access to correlation values
