Overview
This page is an attempt at pulling together the bits and pieces necessary to actually implement an RTK-GPS receiver based on RTKLIB and the Takasu/Yasuda paper.
RTKLIB
RTKLIB: An Open Source Program Package for RTK-GPS http://gpspp.sakura.ne.jp/rtklib/rtklib.htm
Development of the low-cost RTK-GPS receiver...
Tomoji Takasu and Akio Yasuda [Project site] [Paper] [Make blog entry]
Rover
- CPU: A couple compact options are the BeagleBoard or PandaBoard or a light weight alternative: Gumstix "Overo Earth")
- GPS: Ublox Antares 4 either LEA-4T module or AEK-4T kit
- Antenna NovAtel GPS-702-GG
- Data stream: WiFi or GPRS are used in the paper, I think I will use 2m or MURS radios.
There is now a 5-series Ublox receiver that outputs raw mode, the LEA-5T. I happen to have an AEK-4T in my collection already so I will start there. I also think starting with a laptop is an easier approach than starting with a BeagleBoard.
I also have some Pacific Crest blue brick radio modems, will probably start there for the DGPS stream.
Other options for the DGPS stream would include
- http://www.lemosint.com/ radio vendor
- http://radiometrix.com/ MURS radio manufacturer
Base station
CORS data is provided via NTrip. Basically the serial data stream from a GPS Reference Station is passed over an Internet link.
They mention Network RTK, don't know what that is yet.
