The XR5 Technology

Anthony Haddrell

Abstract:	Navstar’s latest range of GPS receivers is implemented using the company’s proven receiver and digital signal processing architecture. A new technology stream has provided a range of components from which substantial advances in price/performance and power dissipation have been made. The paper describes the design considerations and requirements which provided the target specification for the XRS GPS Kernel, the module on which the various products are based. The design of this Kernel is described, along with the technology utilised for its implementation. Results are given from the product proving trials carried out by the company and the benefti of the design are highlighted. Hardware representative of that described in the paper is shown on the company’s Exhibition Stand.
