Designed and manufactured in Boulder, Colorado, USA, the SparkFun RTK mosaic-X5 is the perfect solution for your high-precision positioning and navigation needs. Based on the multi-constellation, multi-frequency, L1/L2/L5-ready mosaic-X5 from Septentrio, this is our most advanced RTK product to date. RTK is short for Real Time Kinematics. A satellite positioning receiver capable of RTK takes in the normal signals from the Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) along with a separate correction data stream to achieve improved positional accuracy. The mosaic-X5 is a 448-channel "all in view" receiver which supports GNSS signals from GPS (USA), GLONASS (Russia), Beidou (China), Galileo (Europe), NavIC (India) plus special additional satellites (e.
g. SBAS and QZSS). The mosaic-X5 also has built-in on-module support for other L-band correction services. The RTK mosaic-X5 can be configured as an RTK Base, where it feeds corrections to other RTK Rovers, or as an RTK Rover, where it can use corrections to achieve a horizontal positioning accuracy of 6 millimeters ( 0.6 cm) (plus 0.5 PPM). For robotics and autonomous systems applications, the mosaic-X5 can deliver position updates at 100Hz (100 times per second). The mosaic-X5 is a very sophisticated chip running a full internal web page server; the position can be monitored, and the module is fully configured through that web page using a standard browser.
Under the hood, the RTK mosaic-X5 is based on the mosaic-X5 GNSS module from
