Highly integrated GPS/EGNOS receiver chipset

SBAS (EGNOS for Europe) is a powerful aiding system for improving both accuracy and safety. The future market demands new receivers which include correction abilities. The number of SBAS demanding application is increasing considerably: aviators for landing, helicopters, police, farmers... Therefore in this paper a special chipset consisting out of a analog front-end and a digital base band chip is presented and described. A special chipset for search and rescue devices has been developed with the accuracy of corrected signal. The chipset which merges a Front-End and a Base Band chip is described in this paper.
