Dual-Antenna GNSS Receiver Module

  11/03/2010
Trimble introduced the new Trimble BD982, a Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver for guidance and control applications. Capable of receiving a wide range of commercially available satellite signals, the BD982 receiver is designed to allow OEMs and system integrators to add centimetre-level positioning and heading to specialised or custom hardware solutions. The announcement was made at the Oceanology International 2010.

 

Trimble dual-GNSS receiver module

The Trimble BD982 GNSS receiver module is a single-board solution for precise position and heading in a compact form factor. The receiver is based on a pair of Trimble's advanced 220 channel Maxwell 6 chips which allow dual antenna inputs and the calculation of multiple GNSS RTK baselines. This eliminates the traditional GNSS problem of determining vehicle heading in static or low-dynamic environments. It supports a wide range of satellite signals, including GPS L1/L2/L5 and GLONASS L1/L2 signals. In addition, Trimble is committed to providing Galileo-compatible products in advance of Galileo system availability. In support of this plan, the Trimble BD982 GNSS receiver is capable of tracking the experimental Galileo GIOVE-A and GIOVE-B test satellites for signal evaluation and test purposes. The Trimble BD982 also offers the option of utilizing OmniSTAR VBS, XP, G2 and HP services.

 

The new embedded solution was designed for easy integration and rugged dependability. Flexible connectivity options - Ethernet, RS232, USB or CAN - allow fast data transfer and easy configuration via standard Web browsers. The BD982 provides on-board multipath migration, proven low-elevation tracking technology and fast RTK initialisation.

Hydrographic Survey of Riverbed Erosion

Members of the US Geological Survey were filmed while out on the Missouri River at Williston, North Dakota, USA, performing a hydrographic survey to monitor the state of riverbed erosion. They were using a multibeam echo sounder which transmits sound energy and analyses the return signal (echo) that has bounced off the riverbed or other objects. Multibeam sonars emit sound waves from directly beneath a ship's hull to produce fan-shaped coverage of the riverbed. 


Gauge height at the Williston gauge was approximately 27.65 feet when this video was taken. Additional information about the USGS streamgauge at Williston is available at http://waterdata.usgs.gov/nd/nwis?program=nwisman&site_no=06330000
