Introduction
The RT-3010
GPS
sensor delivers unmatched accuracy
to the precise positioning community who need a
cost-effective, high performance
GPS
sensor. This
unique sensor can transmit or receive corrections via
an onboard
Spread Spectrum Radio
(SSR)
.
System Overview
GPS Sensor
The RT-3010 sensor consists of a 12-channel
dual
frequency
precision
GPS
sensor with two additional
channels
for receiving
Satellite Based Augmentation
System
(
SBAS
) signals. The sensor can output
proprietary raw data as fast as 50Hz (optional) and
Position Velocity Time
(
PVT
) data as fast as 25Hz
(optional) through two 115
kbps
serial ports.
The RT-3010 is designed to integrate easily into
RTK
,
field data verification, topographical surveys, and a
wide variety of surveying applications. Testing shows
that the system resolves ambiguities at startup or on
satellite reacquisition typically within 2 seconds.
The RT-3010 has a built-in spread spectrum radio
providing an immediate solution for the system
integrator and real time surveyor. Utilizing the built in
radio for
RTK
measurements, the sensors communicate
using NavCom’s highly efficient proprietary
RTK
format
or other
RTK
formats, such as
RTCM
and
CMR
.
Additionally, the sensor simultaneously accepts
corrections for
DGPS (WAAS/EGNOS)
assuring seamless
position output.
