RTK Modems and Correction Services
RTK Modems and Correction Services
RTK modems enable high-stability connections between navigation and correction sources, allowing for continuous work without loss of positional accuracy. In this regard, they are an absolutely essential component of precision agriculture.
Essential Precision for Modern Agriculture
Correction services process satellite signals and send position refinements to the receiver. This minimizes errors and increases the accuracy of all activities. The source of corrections can be from a national network (VRS) or from a private enterprise RTK station from FONS. A fixed base RTK station or VRS provides navigation corrections from the actual position of the machine, relative to a reference point on the ground. Thus, a position with an accuracy of approximately 2 cm. Then, this RTK correction is transferred via an RTK modem to the GNSS receiver, which is capable of using it. An RTK modem can operate with two SIM cards, even from different operators, achieving maximum reliability. If one operator’s connection fails, it switches to the other within one to two seconds, preventing autopilot control loss or application interruption.
