GEM1305 RTK receiver with antenna

GEM1305 is a RTK receiver with antenna designed and manufactured by DATAGNSS.

GEM1305 is based on the new generation Allystar dual-core GNSS SoC. It supports RTK functionality with a maximum data update rate of 5Hz.

ArduPilot Setup

For example, if GEM1305 is connected to the autopilot’s SERIAL4 port, set:

Note

if you use 4.5 or earlier firmware, it should be GPS_TYPE = 5.

Configuration

RTK technology can greatly improve the accuracy of positioning.

RTK technology requires a base and a rover, with the base placed on the ground, which is referred to as the rover on the drone.The data from the base needs to be transmitted to the drone via telemetry radio and inputted into the RTK receiver on the rover.

Base station setup

We suggest using the NANO RTK Receiver as the configuration for the base station(ground base station), which is more convenient and user-friendly.

Please refer to the following link for the full base station setup guide: - Base station setup

Rover station (Aircraft) setup

For vehicles, NANO RTK Receiver or GEM1305 can be chosen as the Rover for RTK.

Whether you choose NANO RTK Receiver or GEM1305, you need to confirm in the Satrack software that all RTCM data outputs are disabled and all NMEA outputs are enabled.

In Rover mode, the output rate must be set to 5Hz.

Please refer to the following link for the full rover station setup guide: - Rover station setup
