<name>Deprecated: GNSS Scintillation Receiver - PolaRxS/5S</name>
<description>The Septentrio (https://www.septentrio.com/) PolaRxS and the newest PolaRx5S are multi-frequency multi-constellation receivers able to track GPS L1CA, L1P, L2C, L2P, L5; GLONASS L1CA, L2CA; Galileo E1, E5a, E5b, E5AltBoc; BeiDou B1, B2; SBAS L1. They are equipped with a low-noise OCXO oscillator and store, for every satellite in view and for every available frequency, the raw phase (in cycles) and post-correlation I and Q samples acquired at a sampling rate of 50/100 Hz. They are able to provide, with a 1-minute resolution, the amplitude (S4) and phase (sigma-phi) scintillation indices, together with the Total Electron Content (TEC) and its rate of change (ROT).</description>
