Abstract

This paper presents a case study implementation of a fading channel model for a recently introduced Global Positioning System (GPS) simulator from National Instruments. Existing models are discussed and implementation aspects are presented for a model which combines statistical properties of different multipath channels. The NI´s GPS simulator is implemented in an open development environment, LabVIEW, which allows an incorporation of user-defined models. Computational optimization issues are also discussed.
