SBG Systems expands GNSS receiver options

SBG Systems has upgraded its inertial navigation systems — Ekinox, Apogee and Navsight— with new GNSS receiver options designed to offer greater flexibility while maintaining high precision and reliability.

Previously, SBG Systems integrated a triple-band GNSS receiver with RTK and Fugro Marinestar capabilities into its navigation solutions. The latest update introduces three additional GNSS receiver variants, each tailored to specific regional and application needs. These include:

• Marinestar: This variant supports Fugro Marinestar, delivering precise point positioning (PPP) with centimeter-level accuracy via L-band corrections without requiring a base station. It is optimized for marine applications such as hydrographic surveys and dredging.
• HAS Ready / NavIC: Designed for future compatibility, this variant includes Galileo E6 support for the upcoming Galileo High Accuracy Service (HAS), offering free decimeter-level PPP corrections globally. Additionally, it supports the Indian NavIC system, making it suitable for applications in urban environments, aviation and operations in India.
• Centimeter-Level Augmentation Service (CLAS): Tailored for users in Japan, this variant utilizes QZSS L6 signals to provide free PPP corrections without external services. It is ideal for land and marine navigation in Japan.

All GNSS variants integrate seamlessly with SBG Systems’ antenna portfolio and Qinertia post-processing software. Users select the appropriate GNSS variant at purchase to match their operational requirements. These enhancements aim to provide versatile solutions across diverse industries while ensuring reliable performance.
