Abstract
This paper describes a GPS software receiver design made of inexpensive and physically small hardware components. The small embedded platform, known as the Parallella-16 computer has been utilized in conjunction with a commercial RF front-end to construct a 4-channel real time software GPS receiver. The Parallella-16 board is a kickstarter-funded platform consisting of a dual-core ARM A9 CPU, an integrated FPGA and a 16-core coprocessor known as the Epiphany. The main contribution in this paper has been the development of a GPS tracking algorithm, which utilizes the parallelism in the Epiphany processor. The total cost of the hardware is below 150$ and the size is comparable to a credit-card. The receiver has been developed for research in GNSS/INS integration on small Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs).
