Main Features of MuSNAT
| Feature | MuSNAT | |
|---|---|---|
| Solution | Remark | |
| Operating system | Windows 10/11 | Compiles as GUI or as command-line version (port of command-line version to Linux under preparation) |
| Programming environment | Microsoft Visual Studio 2019 C++ | CUDA, Intel OneAPI, vcpkg, and .net for GUI |
| IF sample file input source | ION SDR Standard and proprietary file readers | Proprietary readers faster than ION SDR reader |
| Real-time sample input | Yes, via TCP/IP | Server available via LabView for selected NI USRPs |
| Additional sensors | Lidar, IMU | Lidar uses PCL format, IMU proprietary ASCII format; video formats supported but not yet used |
| Supported GNSS | GPS, Galileo, BeiDou, GLONASS, SBAS, OFDM (LTE, 5G, etc.) | Nearly all open spreading codes available with at least one navigation message decoder for each system |
| Acquisition | Optimized FFT method | CPU and GPU supported |
| Tracking | Dot-product from Intel Performance Primitives (CUDA version for massive multi-correlator applications) | Computational performance mostly limited by memory bus width |
| Further features | Multi-antenna, signal generator, primary–secondary tracking, SQL database for logging, vector tracking, GNSS/INS integration, RTKLIB | Support of Galileo OSNMA/HAS and synthetic aperture processing via MATLAB interface |
| Availability | Executable plus data visualizer downloadable via UniBwM (2023) | Source code available for research projects with UniBwM |
Note: OFDM: orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing
