DATASHEET:
Overview
The UM982 GNSS RTK & heading is Unicore’s new-generation proprietary high-precision positioning and heading module, based on the Nebulas IV SoC. The UM982 simultaneously tracks multiple frequencies of all GNSS systems, enabling the module to output high-precision RTK positioning along with dual-antenna heading. The built-in advanced anti-interference technology ensures the UM982 delivers reliable and accurate positioning data even in complex electromagnetic environments. Featuring extraordinary positioning performance and stability, UM982 is a perfect choice for high precision navigation and positioning applications.
The UM982 simultaneously tracks signals from GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou and QZSS systems and supports tri-band signals from GPS, Galileo and BeiDou and QZSS, delivering “instantaneous” RTK initialization achieving centimeter level
positioning accuracy. In areas of partial signal blockage or over long baseline distance, the UM982 obtains RTK positioning results quickly and reliably.
RTK KEEP technology eliminates the positioning errors affected by satellite orbits, clock difference’s, ionospheric and tropospheric delays by means of models and parameter estimation after the loss of base station data. Centimeter-level positioning accuracy can be maintained for up to 10 minutes.
The INSTANT HEADING algorithm utilizes synchronized, symmetric, multi-path mitigated observational data to process single-epoch ambiguity to provide instant heading. INSTANT HEADING introduces multi-system, multi-frequency, carrier
wide and narrow lane integrated algorithms, such as ambiguity search, cycle slip detection / repair and multi-path error. Data from all tracked constellations and ensures the usability and reliability of the heading function.
