Oscar UltimateTilt Test Steps& Results Analysis

1. Tilt Test Steps

1) Configure Oscar Ultimate to rover mode and get a fixed solution.

2) Adjust the pole height; the default pole height is 1.8m in Nuwa.

3) Don't turn on the tilt button; measure a point in the "Survey" interface of Nuwa, then keep the pole tip at that point, rotate 90 degrees, and measure it again. Repeat three times to get four points in "Point" of Nuwa.

4) Compare the location of the four points in the "Survey" interface. If they're randomly distributed, and the distance between them is less than 2 cm, it means the pole is normal. If they are very regularly distributed and the distance between them is too large, please measure them four times again for confirmation. If the situation keeps the same, there may be something wrong with the ranging pole, better change to a good one.

5) Make sure the pole is no problem. Turn on the tilt button in Device-Nuwa

6) The tilt LED on the Oscar Ultimate OLED display lights on with steady red; a few seconds later, it starts flashing red.

7) At this time, walk a few steps ahead, tilt the pole in any direction, then the tilt LED turns

steady green indicates tilt compensation is valid, and the tilt status in Nuwa-Survey will show on.

8) Back to the point, measure it at any angle in any direction. Then move forward for a few meters and back to measure again, repeat 10-20 times.

2. Results Analysis

9) Export the coordinates of these points from Nuwa.

10) Calculate the average value of the four points collected in step 3 and take it as the point's truth value.

11) Compare the values of the tilt measurement points and the truth value. Calculate the dN, dE,dh, 2D error, and 3D error. Then calculate the RMS of them. Here is an example of the results.

What is CORS network? How to connect to CORS network with external Bluetooth module and mobile phone?

A CORS is a Continuously Operating Reference Station. The CORS is an appealing way to do RTK due to its convenience and large coverage area. While Tersus Precis-BX305 currently does not support build-in NTRIP client feature. An alternative way to connect CORS network is employing external Bluetooth module and a cellphone. Here is a detailed procedure about how to connect to CORS Network with Precis-BX305 board. Demonstration of connecting Precis BX305 to CORS Network Hardware & Software Requirement Precis-BX305 GNSS antenna GNSS antenna cable External Bluetooth module Bluetooth cable Cell phone (android system) 5V DC charger Software required Ntrip client (free android apps) Connect to CORS Network Please follow below steps. Connect GNSS antenna to Precis-BX305. Connect external Bluetooth module to either COM1 or COM2 of the board Connect to power supplier and plug in/turn on the power Turn on the Bluetooth of the mobile phone and scan and pai

What is the principle of GNSS positioning?

Satellite based positioning relies on measuring distance between satellite and receivers. With known satellite position and measured distance between satellite and receiver, the coordinate of receiver can be calculated. However, the electromagnetic signals emitted by satellites are perturbed by atmosphere and clock errors, which degrade GNSS positioning accuracy. There are two types of positioning mode, one is point position and the other is relative position (see Fig 1). Point positioning includes standard point positioning (SPP) and precise point positioning (PPP). Their major difference is whether use the carrier phase observation. Relative positioning also includes two types: DGPS and RTK. Their difference is the latter one uses carrier phase observation as well. Relative positioning cancels most error sources in distance measurement by making difference between two receivers, so it is more simple and reliable, but it only measures relative position. In practice, the coordinate of
