The Spirent simulator emulates Xona navigation
signals and enables robust, accurate testing before full satellite
constellation deployment
Spirent, the leading global provider of test and assurance
solutions, is pleased to announce SimXona, an industry-first Xona
satellite constellation simulator, has been fully certified by Xona
Space Systems. Xona is developing PULSAR™, a commercial
positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) service built on a
backbone of low Earth orbit (LEO) small satellites. Xona’s patented
high-powered smallsat signals will improve PNT resilience and
accuracy by augmenting global navigation satellite systems (GNSS),
such as GPS, while operating with an independent navigation and
timing system architecture.

Spirent will launch SimXona at the ION Joint Navigation
Conference, June 12-15, 2023, in San Diego, California, and will be
accepting orders in Q2 2023.
“Xona launched the first-ever dedicated LEO PNT satellite into
orbit in May 2022, allowing our next-gen technology to be utilized,
but live-sky testing is only available for a few minutes per day,”
explained Bryan Chan, Xona Co-founder & VP of Business
Development. “Since the full constellation takes time to deploy,
Spirent signal simulators are vital for developers and integrators.
Spirent has been a valued partner as they have prioritized
providing a trusted test solution for OEMs who want to integrate
Xona signals now. Spirent’s flexible software-defined architecture
enabled a quick and robust implementation, and we were impressed by
the results of our certification.”
“Spirent’s dedication to innovation is underscored by our
partnership with Xona. With Xona’s formative advancements in LEO
PNT in the commercial sphere, and ongoing GPS modernization
efforts, it’s an exciting time for those of us whose core mission
is to optimize and secure PNT,” stated Rob VanBrunt, President/CEO
of Spirent Federal. “The options for layered PNT solutions are
growing—along with the need for interference and NAVWAR testing—and
Spirent’s purpose-built equipment is meeting these expanding
requirements through unrivaled performance and interoperability.
Deterministic simulation unique to Spirent solutions ensures
fidelity is never compromised and test results are accurate.”
SimXona can simulate the Xona LEO constellation today—on its
own, and in concert with Spirent’s comprehensive PNT and threat
simulation capabilities. Spirent has developed LEO simulation
solutions for both the military and commercial sectors, including
modeling software that combines the simulation of precise LEO
orbits and highly accurate GNSS signals, delivering greater realism
for applications that have no margin for error. Contact Spirent
Federal to discuss testing requirements.
