HCS885EXF

The HCS885EXF is an advanced embedded multi-band (L1/L5), multi-constellation GNSS receiver/antenna. It supports RTK corrections and PointPerfect® PPP-RTK augmentation, offering:

• Sub 1-meter accuracy in stand-alone mode
• Sub 1 cm accuracy with RTK corrections
• Sub 10 cm accuracy with PPP-RTK corrections

Key Features

Interference Resilience

The HCS885EXF integrates the latest multi-band GNSS receiver with a precision-tuned Calian antenna, providing excellent axial ratios and eliminating the need for a ground plane. It supports concurrent tracking of all major constellations (GPS, BeiDou, Galileo, and GLONASS) across multiple frequency bands, enhancing convergence capability for quick, precise, and reliable positioning.

Multi-Band Architecture

The multi-band design effectively removes ionospheric errors, with the L5 band offering superior interference and multipath performance compared to L2. The HCS885EXF uses Calian eXtended Filter (XF) technology to mitigate near-band and out-of-band interference, including LTE signals and their harmonics, ensuring reliable operation in challenging environments.

PPP-RTK, RTK, and Heading

The HCS885XF supports various correction services, including PPP-RTK (PointPerfect) and RTK base/rover corrections, allowing for performance optimization based on specific application needs. It is compatible with major public RTK services like Polaris RTK from Point One Navigation and Skylark Cx and Nx RTK from Swift Navigation. Additionally, two HCS885XFs can be configured as a Base/Rover pair for precise heading applications. Control, corrections, and position output are managed via a 6-pin JST receptacle connector.

u-blox NEO-F9P Receiver

The HCS885EXF is built around the u-blox NEO-F9P receiver, which is known for its high precision and reliability. This receiver supports multi-band GNSS and provides robust performance in various challenging environments, making it ideal for applications requiring precise location and heading.

This makes the HCS885EXF ideal for UAV applications requiring precise location and heading.
