Abstract
piNAV L1 is a GPS L1 receiver for position determination of the small satellites at LEO orbits. The receiver was tested by the ReGen software GPS simulator for static and dynamic scenarios. The typical horizontal position error for static scenario is 2.5 m (95%). The position errors for dynamic scenarios are affected by the dynamic stress errors.
