Receiver kombinerer GPS, Glonass og Galileo

Fastrax fra Finland lancerer multi-GNSS receiver, der understøtter både Glonass, GPS og Galileo (via senere softwareopdatering), hvilket giver helt nye perspektiver med hensyn til bl.a. præcisionen (in english).

Fastrax introduces a  new multi-GNSS receiver, IT600. IT600 is a multi-GNSS receiver, using Glonass, GPS and Galileo for positioning. The size is not larger than the well-known IT300 and IT500, being one of the smallest multi-GNSS receivers on the market.

Although size is the same as the other Fastrax Multiplatform modules, the pin-out is different. It is based on the new STMicroelectronics Teseo II chip, which brings great benefits into this new receiver.

It doesn’t only enable one solution for global markets, but it also brings more accurate position by using higher number of satellites of both Glonass and GPS systems. In addition to GPS, Glonass and in the future Galileo, the IT600 can use already today QZSS and SBAS satellites like WAAS and Egnos. The receiver has thus higher probability for good positioning results even in dense urban areas.

The IT600 also supports advanced dead reckoning by being able to use an analog gyro and odometer pulse and it can later be complemented with a digital 3-axis gyro and differential wheel pulse from a vehicle’s CAN interface in order to compensate for possible unavailability of GNSS signals.
