The ALLSAT Virtual Base is based upon an innovative concept that combines the advantages of two established technologies. You will experience productivity hitherto unknown in this price range. Further, ALLSAT Virtual Base opens the field for new applications in precise navigation.
The main item is the well-known concept of VRS (Virtual Reference Station) of the ascos reference service or any comparable GNSS correction data services outside Germany. The reference service calculates a virtual reference station nearby your true position by interpolation from the reference net-work. Correction data are calculated for this virtual reference station and are transferred to the user's rover system - as if actually a true base station were installed. This is nothing new: this reference network technology is established for years.
However, instead of receiving the GNSS correction data via GSM/GPRS directly in the user's system (e.g. on a machine), or the user physically operating his or her own base station, the ALLSAT Virtual Base is an intelligent combination of both technologies.
The ALLSAT Virtual Base combines the high availability of correction data of a GNSS reference sta-tion and the possibility of local radio broadcasting with advantages of modern GPRS transfer tech-niques for correction data. The latter are applied more and more in many applications thanks to very low investment costs and simplicity of operation.
To receive GNSS correction data via GPRS a completely automated NTRIP client in employed. The system is ready to use upon the press of a button following a one-time initial configuration. For radio broadcasting you may use a well established standard solution by ALLSAT, or adjust the system to the radio technology of your GNSS system.
