Abstract
The disclosed technology for preparing digital samples for synthesis of RF to simulate channels and GNSS satellites using GPUs includes receiving simulated position and velocity of an antenna, dividing the cycle into points to be converted into the synthesized signal, and computing the points. A first LUT includes pseudo random sequences combinable to produce a code that varies over time for encoding the channel, and a second LUT specifies linear combinations of the pseudo random sequences in the first LUT that produce channel codes to produce the digital sample points. Also included is using GPUs to generate the channel code for a point by mapping the channel code and time position, combining the code with data to be encoded, repeatedly applying the using and combining to produce points, using multiple GPU cores to encode sample points concurrently in the cycle, and sending an ordered sequence of points to a converter.
