nav_msg_listener

Simple application that retrieves decoded navigation messages produced by GNSS-SDR and prints them in a terminal. This is only for demonstration purposes, as a example on how to retrieve data using the nav_message.proto file.

Build the software

This software requires Boost and Protocol Buffers.

In a terminal, type:

$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make

Optionally, you can install it:

$ sudo make install

and uninstall it later with:

$ sudo make uninstall

Usage

In order to tell GNSS-SDR to generate those messages, you need to include the lines:

NavDataMonitor.enable_monitor=true
NavDataMonitor.client_addresses=127.0.0.1  ; destination IP
NavDataMonitor.port=1237                   ; destination port

in your gnss-sdr configuration file. You can specify multiple destination addresses, separated by underscores:

NavDataMonitor.client_addresses=79.154.253.31_79.154.253.32

Run gnss-sdr with your configuration, and at the same time, from the computer of the client address (or another terminal from the same computer that is executing gnss-sdr if you are using 127.0.0.1), execute the binary as:

$ ./nav_msg_listener 1237

where 1237 needs to be the same port as in NavDataMonitor.port. As soon as gnss-sdr starts to decode navigation messages, you will see them in your terminal:

$ ./nav_msg_listener 1237
