RTK Antennas for High Precision GNSS Positioning Applications
What Is an RTK Antenna? An RTK antenna is a high-precision GNSS antenna used in Real-Time Kinematic positioning systems. RTK technology improves positioning accuracy by using carrier-phase measurements together with correction data from a reference station or correction service. Compared with standard GNSS positioning, RTK systems can provide much higher accuracy and are commonly used in applications where precise location information is critical. BAT Wireless provides RTK antenna solutions for surveying, mapping, UAVs, precision agriculture, construction equipment, autonomous systems and other high-precision positioning applications . How Does an RTK Antenna Support High Precision Positioning? RTK positioning depends on the quality of the GNSS signals received by the antenna. Modern RTK systems may receive signals from multiple satellite constellations, including GPS, BeiDou, Galileo and GLONASS . Many high-precision systems also use multiple frequency bands to improve signal ...
