  • Page 33: Information On Satellite Reception

    Your system is fitted with the GNS, a 72-channel satellite receiver clock which serves as a high-accuracy time reference and high-precision frequency reference for your Meinberg system and is designed to receive signals from the United States GPS (Global Positioning System), Russian GLONASS (GLObal NAvigation Satellite System), the European Galileo system, and the Chinese BeiDou system.

  • Page 34: Satellite Systems

    Satellite Systems GPS was installed by the United States Department of Defense (US DoD) and operates at two performance levels: the Standard Positioning Service, or SPS, and the Precise Positioning Service, or PPS. The structure of the messages transmitted by the SPS has been openly published and reception is provided for public use. The timing and navigation data of the more precise PPS is encrypted and is thus only accessible to certain (usually military) users.

  • Page 38: Antenna Cable

    Meinberg provides suitable cable types with its antennas and these are ordered together with the antenna to match the length you need from your antenna to your Meinberg reference clock. The route to be covered for your antenna installation should be determined and the appropriate cable type selected accordingly before confirming your order.
  • Page 39 9 Installation of a GNSS Antenna Laying the Antenna Cable When laying the antenna cable, ensure that the specified maximum cable length is not exceeded. This length will depend on the selected cable type and its attenuation factor. If the specified maximum length is exceeded, correct transmission of the synchronization data and thus proper synchronization of the reference clock can no longer be guaranteed.
  • Page 40 Compensating for Signal Propagation Time GNS Clocks The propagation of the signal from the antenna to the receiver (reference clock) can incur a certain delay. This delay can be compensated for in the meinbergOS Web Interface. To do this, log into the Web Interface of your microSync system and proceed as follows: Open the menu "Configuration"...
