GNSS Receiver Satellite Tracking view

The GNSS Receiver Satellite Tracking view displays the tracked satellite data for the current epoch. The tracked satellite information is given in the format as listed in the following table.

Tracked satellite information

Column header

Arrow is..

Specification

Graphical satellite status in form of colored arrows

Green

Satellite is healthy.

 

Yellow

Broadcast orbit too old or not available.

 

Red

Unhealthy; below cutoff.

 

Fast ascending satellite (> 3° / 10 min).

 

Slowly ascending satellite (< 3° / 10 min).

 

Not tracking.

 

Slowly descending satellite (< 3° / 10 min).

 

Fast descending satellite (> 3° / 10 min).

Sat

 

Satellite identification by satellite system ID and (PRN) number. Satellite system IDs are:
Cxx: A BeiDou satellite.
Exx: A Galileo satellite.
Gxx: A GPS satellite.
Jxx: A QZSS satellite.
Rxx: A GLONASS satellite.
Sxx: An SBAS satellite.

El

 

Satellite elevation in degrees.

Az

 

Satellite azimuth in degrees.

SNR (CA)

SNR (CA/P1/E1/B1)

 

Signal-to-noise ratio on L1, either in CA code or P code or
both or
both and E1 or
both and E1 and B1 [dB/Hz]

SNR (L2)
SNR (L2C)
SNR (L2/L2C/L2CA)

 

Signal-to-noise ratio on L2, either legacy or

SNR (L5)
SNR (L5/E5/E5A/E5B)

 

Signal-to-noise ratio on L5, either GPS/QZSS or
GPS/QZSS and Galileo signals. [dB/Hz]

SNR (E6/B3)

 

Signal-to-noise ratio on E6 / B3.

CA
P1
CA/P1
CA/P1/E1
CA/P1/E1/B1

 

Tracking counter without LLI (on L1, either in CA code or P code or both, or both and E1, or both and E1 and B1).

L2
L2C
L2/L2C/L2CA

 

Tracking counter without LLI (L2, either legacy or civil code or both).

L5
L5/E5/E5A/E5B

 

Tracking counter without LLI on L5, either GPS, or GPS and Galileo signals

E6/B3

 

Tracking counter without LLI (on E6 / B3).

Note - The update interval of the satellite tracking information depends on the bandwidth control setting you have selected when logging in to the Trimble 4D Control Server UI.
