[TEWKSBURY, 04/24/2019] – CAST, an industry leader in creating and developing GNSS/INS simulation systems, provides the CAST-3000 EGI Integration System for major military and government clients. The company’s service engineers are highly competent and are always ready to assist clients.

Developed over the past decade with Northrop Grumman and Honeywell, the CAST-3000 EGI Integration System fully supports GPS/INS integration testing. It produces GPS RF signals that are simultaneous with simulated IMU sensor data, which offers dynamic laboratory testing for both government and military applications.

The CAST-3000 EGI Integration System combines both GPS and INS features, providing a coordinated solution for improved position, altitude, velocity, and pointing performance. The combined solution duplicates real-life scenarios involving the technology. The combination of GPS and INS gives updates on position and angle at a faster rate than just GPS, since INS fills the blank spaces between GPS positions. When the receiver loses the GPS signal, the CAST-3000 EGI Integration System will continue to calculate the position and angle.

The CAST-3000 EGI Integration System simulates sensors to offer the dynamic vertical channel aiding that is required to maintain the navigation system’s Kalman filter stability. It has a high rate of inertial measurements with a high degree of fidelity. The CAST-3000 EGI Integration System also includes a full-scale six Degrees of Freedom motion generation capability and provides an advanced avionic sensor simulation barometric altimeter, which accurately measures altitude.
