ZX-Eurocard receiver tracks all the available signals from GPS satellites, both C/A and P code, both L1 and L2 frequencies, whether AS (Anti-Spoofing) is on or off. The ZX-Eurocard is built to withstand severe vibration requirements in its target applications. It also provide positions at the high update rates and low latencies required in control applications.
The ZX-Eurocard provides real-time position, velocity, and time measurements using 36 dedicated separate and parallel channels, 12 each for Coarse/Acquisition (C/A code-phase, and carrier-phase measurement on the L1 (1575 MHz), and Precise (P) code phase and carrier phase measurement on L1 and L2 (1227 MHz) bands.
The ZX-receiver receives satellite signals via an L-band antenna and low-noise amplifier (LNA). The ZX-receiver operates stand-alone, and as a base (reference) station or remote (rover) station providing real-time differential GPS operation for code and real-time kinematic (RTK) operation for carrier phase.
The unit has an L1/L2-band radio frequency (RF) port and four RS-232 serial input/output (I/O) ports.
