scope:

This multi-part deliverable addresses integrated GNSS based location systems (GBLS) that combine Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS), with other navigation technologies, as well as with telecommunication networks in order to deliver location-based services to users. As a consequence the present document is not applicable to GNSS only receivers.

The present document specifies the procedures for testing conformance of complex GNSS based Location System (GBLS) with the performance requirements specified in ETSI TS 103 246-3 [3].

This multi-part deliverable proposes a list of functional and performance requirements and related test procedures. For each performance requirement, different classes are defined allowing the benchmark of different GNSS Based Location Systems (GBLS) addressing the same applications.

The tests specified are of a complete GBLS, considered as "Black Box" i.e. the tests are made at outputs of the system in response to stimuli applied at the inputs. The tests are defined for laboratory testing only, and not in the "field".
