TUTGNSS University based hardware/software GNSS receiver for research purposes

Recently a lot of research has been going on in the field of Global Navigation Satellite System receivers. Only few projects have been providing open source hardware receivers. In this paper we present a university based GNSS receiver intended for open source release. The highly modular design of the receiver is described in detail. We also provide description of the software parts and advanced user interface of the receiver. In the end of the paper a test scenario is provided proving the functionality of the receiver design. The presented GNSS receiver architecture is expected to be valuable prototype for research purposes.
