BDS & System Architecture (Software）

Course Coverage

This course equips students with in-depth knowledge and practical skills in the software architecture and development of BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS) base station systems. The curriculum covers software design principles for BDS, including satellite signal processing algorithms, real-time data management, and system integration with navigation and aviation applications. Students will learn to develop and optimize software for base station operations, focusing on user interfaces, data analytics, and cybersecurity for navigation systems. The course includes hands-on training in programming languages (e.g., Python, C++), software debugging, and compliance with aviation and navigation regulatory standards. Practical labs and simulations provide experience in managing BDS software in real-world scenarios.

Course Objectives

Upon completion of the course, students will be able to:

• Design and develop software architectures for BDS base station systems to support high-precision navigation;
• Implement and maintain software solutions for real-time data processing and system integration in BDS operations;
• Pursue roles in software development, system architecture, or technical support for navigation systems, with pathways to advanced degree programs;
• Build a strong foundation in programming, data analysis, cybersecurity, and problem-solving, enabling continuous self-directed learning;
• Evaluate the impact of BDS software technologies on aviation, transportation, and smart city initiatives at local, regional, and global levels;
• Apply software engineering, data science, and regulatory concepts to the development and management of BDS software systems.

Employment Prospects

Graduates of this course can pursue careers in software-related roles for BDS base station systems, including navigation software developer, system architect, data analyst, cybersecurity specialist, and navigation system integrator. Employment opportunities exist in aviation authorities, satellite navigation companies, software development firms, telecommunications providers, smart city projects, and government agencies focused on navigation and infrastructure. Graduates will contribute to the advancement of BDS software applications in aviation, autonomous vehicles, and geospatial services.
