The Arduino UNO Q runs a Debian-based Linux distribution, which enables native installation of GNU Radio and GNSS-SDR. The complete GNSS-SDR software stack is built directly on the target following the official GNSS-SDR build and installation instructions provided by the GNSS-SDR project.

In its current configuration, the receiver supports GPS L1 C/A only. Multi-constellation operation (e.g., Galileo) is not yet enabled due to computational and memory constraints of the platform.

The system integrates:

Real-time GNSS-SDR processing
A Node.js web server for remote control
A Python interface for data extraction
An STM32F0 microcontroller driving an LED matrix for live visualization

    Hardware setup

    The hardware configuration used in this project consists of:

    • Arduino UNO Q
      • Linux host (Debian-based)
      • STM32F0 microcontroller
    • RTL-SDR front-end
      • Nooelec NESDR SmarTee SDR

    GNSS processing configuration

    Real-time GNSS processing is performed using the following configuration:

    • Constellation: GPS
    • Signal: GPS L1 C/A
    • Number of tracking channels: 7
    • Coherent integration time: 4 ms
    • Front-end: RTL-SDR (live RF input)

    The receiver computes standard GNSS outputs in real time, including:

    • GPS observables
    • Carrier-to-noise density ratio (C/N₀)
    • Position, Velocity, and Time (PVT) solution

    Galileo signal processing is currently not enabled due to platform resource limitations.
