The Compass Navigation Satellite System (CNSS), also named BeiDou-2,[1] is China’s second-generation satellite navigation system that will be capable of providing positioning, navigation, and timing services to users on a continuous worldwide basis.[1][2]

Although the upgrade of its regional navigation system towards a global solution started in 1997, the formal approval by the Government of the development and deployment of BeiDou-2/CNSS was done in 2004.[1] The system is currently under development evolving from a regional system called BeiDou-1, and in the first phase will provide high-accuracy positioning services for users in China and its neighboring regions by 2012.[1] In a second stage, the system will evolve to provide global navigation services by 2020, similarly to the GPS, GLONASS or Galileo systems.[1]

As of August 2011, nine satellites for Compass have been launched, the first eight of which completed the deployment foreseen for the first phase of BeiDou-2.[1][3][4]

COMPASS Receiver

The COMPASS User Segment consists of COMPASS/Beidou user terminals[3]. The first generation of BeiDou-1 terminals emerged in 2003 with full RDSS function and communication terminal based on General Purpose ICs. The second generation appeared in 2009 based in ASIC and comprising already GPS integration[5].
