- Description
- A GPS-Based Time Server This product is a GPS Time server which is an integral component within a satellite telecommunications system. The GPS time server receives signals from multiple GPS type satellites. (collectively known as the Global Navigation Satellite Systems – GNSS) It uses multiple timing signals collected from multiple satellites to calculate the location of the GPS time server on the earth’s surface and is a radio receiving device capable of receiving, tracking, converting and measuring GPS satellite navigation and positioning signals. The antenna unit consists of a receiving antenna and a preamplifier. Its basic function is to receive GPS satellite signals and convert the energy of the satellite signals into the corresponding amount of current. After the preamplifier, the weak GPS signal current is amplified and sent. After the preamplifier, the weak GPS signal current is amplified and sent. The frequency converter that the receiver can enter and perform frequency conversion can track and measure the signal. The main function of the receiver unit is to track, process and measure the signal power after amplification and variable frequency processing. It is mainly composed of a signal channel unit, a storage unit, a calculation and display control unit, and a power supply. The unit then generates time and frequency accurate signals such as IRIG and NTP time references and 10MHz and 1PPS frequency references.
