Calian, a developer of GNSS antenna solutions for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and robotics, explores how it supports precision agriculture through its accurate, multi-constellation GNSS antenna technology.
Precision agriculture is vital in farming, increasing crop yields and profitability, whilst reducing the use of fertilizers, herbicides, and pesticides and the impact on the environment.
GNSS antennas require an exact phase center offset and minimal phase center variation to ensure centimeter-level accuracy. L-band correction services are also used to provide high-precision positioning for innovative agricultural practices, like systematically shifting planting rows every year to enable more nutrient-rich soil.
Calian’s multi-constellation, multi-frequency technology meets current agricultural precision demands, delivering diverse economical, high-performance, and accurate antennas which incorporate its patented technologies. The company provides single-, dual-, triple– and full-band antennas.
High performance GNSS antennas by Calian are multi-constellation and multi-band with strong multi-path rejection in high multi-reflection environments. Extended Filtering technology provides excellent rejection of out-of-band frequencies across the GPS, QZSS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou constellation signals to maximize GNSS reception. They are calibrated to IGS and NGS standards to ensure performance to expectation.
Available in a wide spectrum of packaging options, Calian GNSS antennas are calibrated to IGS and NGS standards. With wide voltage ranges, low power consumption and strong electrostatic discharge (ESD) Calian’s GNSS antennas are compatible with most GNSS receivers on the market.
