Description

AsteRx-m2a UAS RTK receiver by Septentrio is specifically designed for straightforward integration into UAS applications. It provides centimeter-level RTK positioning and accurate heading for just over 1W.

It features standard connections to Pixhawk and ArduPilot as well as event marker inputs to accurately time stamp camera shutter events.

Key features

  • Multi-constellation, multi-frequency all-in-view satellite tracking
  • Centimeter-level RTK position accuracy with or without a real-time datalink
  • Heading output for orientation or INS integrations
  • AIM+ anti-jamming and monitoring system
  • Camera shutter synchronization
  • Plug compatible with ArduPilot/Pixhawk

Designed for UAS

The AsteRx-m2a UAS is designed for easy integration into any system. Standard connectors connect directly to your autopilot (e.g. Pixhawk) and wide 6-30 V input power range allows powering the receiver directly from the UAS power bus.

Event markers can accurately synchronize a camera shutter with GNSS time. The command interface is fully documented and an SDK is provided to help create professional custom applications.

Reliable Heading performance

With dual-antenna input, the AsteRx-m2a UAS provides precise and reliable heading combined with centimeter-level RTK positioning. GNSS heading removes the reliance on vehicle dynamics or magnetic sensors to provide unmatched performance in both static and dynamic conditions.

Interference robustness

The AsteRx-m2a UAS features AIM+, the most advanced onboard interference mitigation technology on the market today. It can suppress the widest variety of interferers, from simple continuous narrow-band signals to the most complex wide-band and pulsed jammers. The RF spectrum can be viewed in real-time in both time and frequency domains.

No need for ground control points

The AsteRx-m2a UAS works seamlessly with GeoTagZ Software and its SDK library for PPK (Post Processed Kinematic) offline processing. This give RTK accuracy without the need for Ground Control Points or a real-time datalink.

Ultra-low power design

The AsteRx-m2a UAS provides RTK positioning at the lowest power consumption of any comparable device on the market. This means lower heat dissipation, simpler integrations and longer operation on a single battery charge.
