Total number of GSV messages to be transmitted (1-5)
2
Sequence number
1
Sequence number of current GSV message
3

Satellite ID
10
01 ~ 32 are for GPS; 33 ~ 64 are for WAAS (PRN minus 87); 193
~ 197 are for QZSS; 65 ~ 88 are for GLONASS (GL PRN) ; 01 ~ 36
are for GALILEO (GA PRN); 01 ~ 37 are for BDS (BD PRN). GPS,
GLONASS, GALILEO and BDS satellites are differentiated by the
GNSS system ID in table 3. Maximally 4 satellites are included in
each GSV sentence.
5
Elevation

6
Azimuth
250
Satellite azimuth angle in degrees, (000 ~ 359 )
7
SNR
50
C/No in dB (00 ~ 99)
Null when not tracking
