Septentrio, a leader in high-precision GNSS technology, recently announced the launch of its latest smart antenna, AntaRx-Si3. This innovative product is designed to deliver high-accuracy positioning with exceptional availability and integrity, catering especially to after-market upgrades with minimal installation effort. Danilo Sabbatini, the Product Manager of GNSS/INS at Septentrio, emphasized the ease of installation and the added benefit of being able to remove the component to safeguard against theft or vandalism.

The AntaRx-Si3 stands out for its robust design, capable of operating in the most challenging field environments. Encased in an impact-resistant polycarbonate IP69K housing, it is engineered to withstand significant shocks and vibrations. This resilience is crucial for outdoor machinery applications, where durability directly impacts operational reliability.

A noteworthy feature of the AntaRx-Si3 is its integrated 4G cell modem, eliminating the need for additional modem integration to access high-accuracy corrections. This multi-frequency receiver employs Septentrio's field-proven RTK (Real-Time Kinematic) positioning technology, ensuring centimeter-level accuracy critical for a wide range of precision-dependent tasks.

Advanced GNSS+ algorithms bolster the AntaRx-Si3's performance, offering superior multipath mitigation. This capability is essential for uninterrupted operation in environments where satellite signals may be reflected off nearby structures, such as machinery or high-rise silos. The antenna's ability to deliver high-update-rate positioning with low latency is particularly beneficial for autonomous movement or rotation control loops, where every millisecond counts.

Septentrio's commitment to advancing GNSS/INS technologies is evident in the AntaRx-Si3's development. The antenna is a testament to the company's expertise in creating solutions that address the nuanced demands of navigating and positioning in complex environments.

Interested parties can learn more about the AntaRx-Si3 and other GNSS/INS solutions by contacting the Septentrio team. Additionally, Septentrio invites industry professionals to meet their GNSS experts at the upcoming World FIRA 2024 in Toulouse, France, from February 6-8, providing an excellent opportunity for hands-on demonstrations and in-depth discussions about the latest in GNSS technology.

The Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) underpins the functionality of devices like the AntaRx-Si3, leveraging constellations such as the American GPS, European Galileo, Russian GLONASS, Chinese BeiDou, Japan's QZSS, and India's NavIC.

These systems are pivotal in delivering the positioning information that GNSS receivers use to calculate precise locations, demonstrating the global collaboration and technological innovation driving the industry forward.

New, portable antenna could help restore communication after disasters
Stanford CA (SPX) Jan 21, 2024
When an earthquake, flood, or other disaster strikes a region, existing communication infrastructure such as cell phone and radio towers are often damaged or destroyed. Restoring emergency communications as quickly as possible is vital for coordinating rescue and relief efforts. Researchers at Stanford University and the American University of Beirut (AUB) have developed a portable antenna that could be quickly deployed in disaster-prone areas or used to set up communications in underdeveloped reg ... read more
