Timing Multi-GNSS Receiver Module Model GT-88

Features

• Enable to output accurate and robust UTC time and 1PPS synchronized with UTC time

  FURUNO technology made it possible to achieve 5G-required performance. 4.5ns (1 sigma) by a single band receiver is obtained. This is achieved by an improved and advanced position estimation algorithm. It optimizes position calculations using several different GNSS satellite constellations. It allows users to achieve 5G-required performance without changing existing single band GNSS antennas.
  
  White Paper: High Stability of 4.5ns (1 sigma) using a single band GNSS timing receiver

• GNSS antennas can be mounted on walls and windows of tall buildings

  The Dynamic Satellite Selection™* minimizes deterioration of time synchronization performance by choosing only the high quality satellite signals
  * a new satellite signal selection algorithm developed by NTT

• Suitable for various RF・Broadcasting applications. Designed functions aiming to solve usual troubles on site.

  The number of radio stations applied with GNSS time synchronization, ex. PMR, local 5G, and V2X, has been increasing year by year. Especially in urban area, users have to face problems such as urban canyon (signals blocked) and multi-path (signals reflected) etc.

  1. Multipath in Urban area
  2. Jamming (interference wave)
  3. Spoofing

  Countermeasure for GNSS receiver failure. (White Paper)

Countermeasure for GNSS receiver failure

We provide technical white papers for each of the typical failures caused by GNSS receiver. For each failures, our experts in time synchronization explain details about countermeasures on receiver side, using diagrams to show the effectiveness, and how to select products. If you are considering a GNSS receiver for the first time, please take a look.

1. High stability with single band receiver

2. Multipath in Urban area
   White Paper: Industry-leading multipath mitigation in urban canyon environments
3. Jamming (interference wave)
   White Paper: Measures against GNSS jamming (jamming wave)
4. Spoofing
   White Paper: Measures against GNSS spoofing signals
5. Interruption of GNSS signal (holdover)
   White Paper: "Holdover function" as measures against GNSS reception interruptions

The GT-88 doesn't have holdover function. If necessary, please use GF-8802/GF-8803/GF-8804/GF-8805 instead.
