performance range for C/N0 for all displayed L1/G1 (GPS/GLONASS) channels is
46dB to 52dB, although higher and lower values can be noted. The C/N0 for C/A and
G1 is the same. G2 is similar to P2 C/No (6 [dB-Hz] less than G1). L1P is 3dB lower
than CA, and L2 is 6dB lower than CA. A value > 50 is typical of a satellite with 50º
elevation or higher and a clear view of the sky.
CR: Costas Ratio: the estimate of maximum error in phase measurement. The Costas
Ratio value has a range of 100 to -100.
AL: Almanac. Y = almanac is available for the position solution. N = no almanac
TM: The search timeout; i.e. the number of seconds before the search for the satellite
is stopped.
Measurements
The MEAS1B output stream contains raw measureme
nt data collected from the receiver’s
tracking channels. Measurements are tracked from both the GPS/SBAS constellation and
the GLONASS Constellation. Raw measurements can be post-processed to achieve
precise point positions.

GPS/SBAS Constellation
PRN: The satellite number assigned to each channel.
GPS: The valid range is 1-32. (The receiver allocates the range of 1-37,
with 33-37 reserved for expansion.)
SBAS: The valid range is 120-138.
CA (m): Coarse / Acquisition code. The number of meters (range measurement) to the
satellite.
L1-CA (m): The L1 frequency minus the CA measurement.
