BAND-SPECTRUM INTERFERENCE VISUALIZER IN A GLOBAL NAVIGATION SATELLITE SYSTEM RECEIVER
First Claim
1. An apparatus for determining signal strength data within an allocated GNSS frequency band, the apparatus comprising:
- a GNSS antenna for receiving a received signal within the at least one GNSS allocated frequency band;
receiving circuitry for demodulating the received signal into a demodulated signal;
a processor;
memory for storing instructions executable by the processor, the instructions including instructions for;
generating signal strength data for the received signal within the allocated GNSS frequency band, anddetermining a position for a point of interest based upon the demodulated signal; and
a display screen for displaying a graphical representation of the signal strength data for at least a portion of the allocated GNSS frequency band to identify interference within at least the portion of the GNSS allocated frequency band.

Abstract
An apparatus for determining signal strength data within at least one allocated GNSS frequency band is provided. The apparatus includes a GNSS antenna. The GNSS antenna receives signals within the allocated GNSS frequency band. The apparatus further includes receiving circuitry. The receiving circuitry is for demodulating the received signals. The apparatus further includes a processor and memory for storing instructions, executable by the processor. The instructions include instructions for generating signal strength data for the received signals within the GNSS allocated frequency based on the demodulated signals, and for determining a position for a point of interest based upon the demodulated signals. Included in the apparatus is a display screen for displaying a graphical representation of the signal strength data of at least a portion of the at least one GNSS allocated frequency band. The graphical representation identifies interference within at least the portion of the at least one GNSS allocated frequency band.
