GNSS Simulation
CAST-GNSS simulation systems provide you with repeatable GNSS RF signals for a wide range of GNSS applications and vehicle types, perfect for use in either the laboratory or the field.

INERTIAL
IMU Modeling
and Simulation
IMU Simulation
CAST-Inertial provides you with the ability to properly stimulate INS and GNSS/INS navigation systems. Our systems produce GNSS RF signals and IMU sensor data that provide a fully dynamic simulation capability.

CRPA
Wavefront Modeling
and Simulation
Wavefront Simulation
CAST-CRPA systems provide you with a dynamic coherent RF “Wavefront” of GNSS and Interference signals for use in testing and integration of phased-array antenna systems.

JAMMING
Interference Modeling
and Simulation
Interference Simulation
CAST Jammer provides precisely controlled signals for use in most types of GNSS testing applications, emulating interference conditions and threats that can occur in both urban and hostile environments.
CAST Navigation Benefits
Military, government, and commercial customers worldwide choose CAST Navigation’s
powerful, accurate, and operator-friendly simulators to test and integrate GNSS/INS systems
in the laboratory without the expense and unknowns inherent to live-sky testing.
Powerful
Getting the right results the first time shortens schedules and reduces budgets. Our proprietary technologies let CAST GNSS/INS simulator solutions generate consistently accurate and repeatable signal outputs so you can focus on the system under test.
No matter how straightforward or complex their simulation requirements are, our military, government, and commercial customers count on the reliably accurate performance of their CAST simulator solutions.
Accurate
Creating simulations of GNSS conditions at any point in time, anywhere on Earth while simultaneously modeling vehicle motion and interference sources requires robust systems powerful enough to account for every source of GNSS signal variation in real-time.
CAST Navigation’s proprietary hardware and software technologies easily simulate GNSS radio frequency (RF) signals with a fidelity that lets you move the most complex test programs out of the field and into your laboratory.
Operator-Friendly
Intuitive interfaces streamline the configuration of complex simulation scenarios that combine multiple constellations, signal types, environments, interference sources, and vehicles.
2D and 3D visualization tools provide a different perspective on your scenarios. Real-time animations show vehicles under test moving through simulated terrain to quality-check scenarios and generate insights in ways raw data cannot deliver.
The CAST Navigation Mission
Our primary mission is to understand and deliver powerful GNSS/INS Simulation Systems that meet or exceed our customers’ expectations, helping you make the decisions necessary to improve your company’s products and processes.
For over 40 years, CAST Navigation has built lasting industry relationships, maintained long-term military contracts, and served commercial clients worldwide. Since our founding in 1981, we earned a reputation for excellence in our technological execution and our customer service.
Our focus on perfection in GNSS/INS simulation has made CAST Navigation a trusted industry leader.
CAST Navigation Customer Service
Tailored Configurations
We configure every CAST simulator solution to meet each customer’s unique requirements and constraints. Whether testing CRPA systems or evaluating dual-EGI navigation units, our solutions scale to the customer’s needs — now and into the future.
Usability and Complexity
CAST solutions give users absolute control over everything that can impact GNSS reception and Inertial unit performance. Our intuitive user interface tames the complexity of such deep configurability, letting users quickly configure the most realistic simulation scenarios.
Tailored Training
Since no two CAST solutions are alike, we tailor our initial training sessions to each customer’s simulator and the expertise of their team. Conducted in-person or virtually by CAST’s experienced system engineers, these trainings let customers get to work quickly and efficiently.
Maintenance and Support
Our extensive maintenance program protects your hardware and software investment while reducing downtime. Through the program, you can upgrade your system and add capabilities for less than you would spend buying a new simulator system.
