Dual GNSS-Compassing Algorithm
The VN-300 provides the ability to accurately estimate true heading (azimuth with respect to True North) in both static as well as dynamic conditions without any reliance on magnetic sensors. This is accomplished by utilizing GPS interferometry techniques, which measure the heading of the vehicle or platform without any assumptions regarding the vehicle dynamics (RTK moving baseline technique). This is a crucial feature for applications that require an accurate heading at startup, or in situations where insufficient motion is present to perform dynamic alignment.
Key features of the GNSS-Compass algorithms include:
-
Magnetic independent
-
Automatic transition between AHRS, INS and GNSS-Compass
-
Adjustable GNSS antenna baseline lengths for shorter start-up times or increased heading accuracy
-
Heading accuracy between 0.15° and 1.2° (RMS)
-
Start-up in under 2 minutes
-
Raw pseudorange, Doppler & carrier phase outputs
