- Updated to relase 0.0.18
* Improvements in Accuracy:
+ Processing and application of the corrections provided by the
Galileo High Accuracy Service (HAS) to the PVT solution. It
requires at least a Galileo E1 (or E5a) + Galileo E6B
configuration. A new configuration parameter PVT.use_has_corrections,
set to true by default, can be used to deactivate the application
of HAS corrections but still retrieve the HAS data if set to false.
* Improvements in Availability:
+ Fixed bug that made the PVT block to not resolve position anymore
after a loss of samples event.
+ Improved non-coherent acquisition when Acquisition_XX.blocking=false.
+ Implemented processing of BeiDou PRN 34 up to PRN 63 signals.
+ Implemented Hamming code correction for Glonass navigation message.
+ Now the first iteration of the PVT computation is initialized by
the Bancroft method. This allows to get PVT fixes in some unusual
geometries (e.g., GNSS-like signals transmitted by LEO satellites).
This initialization is performed by default. You can opt-out by
setting PVT.bancroft_init=false in your configuration file.
* Improvements in Interoperability:
+ Enabled PVT computation in the Galileo E5a + E5b receiver. Observables
reported in the RINEX file.
+ Fixed PVT computation in the Galileo E5b-only receiver.
+ Get E6B observables and PVT solutions in the Galileo E1B + E6B receiver.
Decoding of HAS messages as described in the HAS SIS ICD v1.0.
Generation of RTCM 3.2 messages from the received HAS messages in
the IGS State Space Representation (SSR) Format. Specifically, it
generates messages of type IGM01 (SSR Orbit Correction), IGM02
(SSR Clock Correction), IGM03 (SSR Combined Orbit and Clock
Correction), and IGM05 (SSR Code Bias).
+ Added a ZMQ_Signal_Source for working with streams of samples
published via ZeroMQ.
+ Fixed register unpacking for Labsat3W files in Labsat_Signal_Source.
This fix is only available if gnss-sdr is linked against Boost >= 1.58.0.
* Improvements in Maintainability:
+ The now archived GPSTk toolkit, used in some optional tests and
applications, has been replaced by the new GNSSTk C++ Library.
Compatibility with the former GPSTk toolkit is maintained.
* Improvements in Portability:
+ Improved detection of the BLAS library under macOS / Macports
(the lapack port dependency installed with the +openblas variant
does not install blas but openblas, which is used as a replacement
if blas is not found).
+ Removed duplicated files in the Secure User Plane Location
implementation, which caused issues when linking with some compilers.
+ Added support for Xilinx's Zynq UltraScale+ devices (requires the
-DENABLE_FPGA=ON building option).
+ Fixed running time error if the gnss-sdr binary and/or the
GNU Radio libraries were built with the -D_GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS
compiler option. This is added by default in some GNU/Linux
distributions (e.g., ArchLinux and Fedora).
+ Fixed linking against libunwind when the glog library is built locally.
+ The configuration options at building time -DENABLE_OWN_GLOG,
-DENABLE_OWN_ARMADILLO, and -DENABLE_OWN_GNSSTK can now be
switched ON and OFF without the need to start from an
empty buiding folder.
+ Improved CMake handling of the spdlog library used
by GNU Radio >= 3.10.
+ Make use of the C++20 standard if the environment allows for it.
+ Improved passing of compiler flags to volk_gnsssdr if the
corresponding environment variables are defined. This fixes
warnings in some packaging systems.
+ Improved support for the RISC-V architecture.
+ Test files are now donwloaded at configuration time instead
of being included in the source tree. This allows for a
smaller package and fixes Lintian very-long-line-length-in-source-file
warnings since those files were not recognized as binaries.
The configuration flag -DENABLE_PACKAGING=ON passed to
CMake deactivates file downloading.
+ The ENABLE_GENERIC_ARCH building option was removed,
simplifying the process of buiding the software in
non-x86 processor architectures.
+ If the Protocol Buffers dependency is not found, it is
downloaded, built and statically linked at buiding time.
If CMake >= 3.13 and the Abseil C++ libraries >= 20230117
are installed on your system, Protocol Buffers v22.2 will
be used. If those requirements are not met, Protocol
Buffers v21.4 will be used instead (requires autotools).
+ Fixes for GCC 13 and Clang 16.
* Improvements in Usability:
+ Fixed large GLONASS velocity errors and the extended
correlator when using the GLONASS_L1_CA_DLL_PLL_C_Aid_Tracking
and GLONASS_L2_CA_DLL_PLL_C_Aid_Tracking implementations.
+ The UHD_Signal_Source learned a new parameter otw_format
for setting the over-the-wire data format (that is, the
format used between the device and the UHD) in some devices,
thus allowing to select the sc8 format instead of the
default sc16. This would reduce the dynamic range and
increase quantization noise, but also reduces the load on
the data link and thus allows for more bandwidth.
+ The UHD_Signal_Source learned another two optional parameters:
device_recv_frame_size and device_num_recv_frames for
overriding transport layer defaults.
+ Added gain setting and reading for the XTRX board when
using the Osmosdr_Signal_Source implementation of a SignalSource.
+ The Osmosdr_Signal_Source implementation learned a new
parameter if_bw to manually set the bandwidth of the
bandpass filter on the radio frontend.
+ The new configuration parameter Channels_XX.RF_channel_ID
allows to specify the signal source per channel group.
+ New configuration parameter PVT.use_unhealthy_sats, set by
default to false, allows processing observables of satellites
that report an unhealthy status in the navigation message
if set to true.
+ Added the Geohash of the PVT solution in the internal logs.
+ Allowed the CMake project to be a sub-project.
