-BNC can produce synchronized or unsynchronized observations epoch by epoch from all stations and satellites to feed a real-time GNSS network engine. Observations can be streamed out through an IP port and/or saved in a local file. The output is always in plain ASCII format and sorted per incoming stream. -
--Each epoch in the output begins with a line containing the GPS Week Number and the seconds within the GPS Week. Following lines begin with the mountpoint string of the stream which provides the observations followed by a satellite ID. Observation types are specified by the 3-character observation code defined in RINEX Version 3. In case of phase observations, a Slip Count is added which is put to '-1' if it is not set. The end of an epoch is indicated by an empty line. -
- --The following table describes the format of BNC's synchronized output of GNSS observations via IP port which consists of 'Epoch Records' and 'Observation Records'. Each Epoch Record is followed by one or more Observation Records. The Observation Record is repeated for each satellite having been observed in the current epoch.
