Description:
The H-RTK F9P Ultralight is an ultra-lightweight RTK GNSS module equipped with a U-blox ZED-F9P, an IST8310 compass, and an integrated helical antenna, tailored for applications where weight is a critical factor.
This module is capable of receiving and tracking multiple GNSS systems. Thanks to its multi-band RF front-end architecture, it can concurrently receive signals from the four primary GNSS constellations: GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BDS. It processes all visible satellites to deliver an RTK navigation solution when paired with correction data.
The device can be set up for simultaneous reception of GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BDS, QZSS, and SBAS signals, offering a robust position reporting and navigation solution. It boasts remarkable sensitivity and quick acquisition times, while its interference suppression capabilities ensure dependable positioning, even in challenging signal environments.
Features:
- Integrated helical antenna
- The maximum navigation update rate for the Holybro DroneCAN H-RTK F9P Rover is 10Hz
- The drone can withstand accelerations of up to 4 g, indicating the maximum amount of force the drone can experience relative to the acceleration due to gravity.
- The drone can operate at altitudes of up to 18,000 meters above sea level, indicating the maximum height at which the drone can fly.
- The drone can reach velocities of up to 515 meters per second (m/s), indicating the maximum speed the drone can achieve during operation.
- Autonomous Positioning: Provides an accuracy of 2.0 meters CEP (Circular Error Probable), which means that 50% of the measured positions will fall within a circle with a radius of 2.0 meters.
- Differential GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System): Offers increased accuracy with an accuracy of 0.5 meters CEP, enhancing precision compared to autonomous positioning.
Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) Positioning: Achieves the highest level of precision with an accuracy of 1 centimeter plus 1 part per million (ppm) horizontally. - This method utilizes correction data from a base station to achieve highly accurate positioning, critical for applications requiring precise navigation or surveying.
- The velocity accuracy for Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) is 0.1 meters per second (m/s).
- The Differential Global Navigation Satellite Systems (D-GNSS) velocity accuracy is specified as 0.05 m/s.
- The accuracy of the time pulse signal, expressed in Root Mean Square (RMS), is 30 nanoseconds (ns).
