These receivers are used on all surface positioning surveys to provide an accurate and reliable position solution. Numerous hardware configurations and options are available to the offshore surveyor to suit a range of applications. The following units are currently available to spot-beam and Inmarsat configurations:
LD2 Multi-Reference DGPS receiver
Full Technical Specification can be downloaded from www.veripos.com
The unit weighs approximately 5kg and is available with a backlit LCD display. Menu settings are controlled and configured using 3 selection buttons arranged on the front panel. The housing is a 19" 1 U rack mountable chassis.
The LD2 is designed to work with an L-Band input within the range 1525 to 1559 MHz and can be used with the Veripos high-power and low-power satellite transmissions. To receive Veripos high-power satellite transmissions, the LD2 utilises a compact high-gain omni-direction antenna, whilst for low-power operation a suitable stabilised dish antenna, such as that used on Inmarsat B and M terminals must be used. Interfacing to this type of antenna is normally straightforward, for which Veripos can supply a special interfacing kit that ensures full compatibility and also protection of the antennas ancillary components.
SD100R Demodulator
Full Technical Specification can be downloaded from www.veripos.com
SD100R is a compact single channel L-Band with superior reception sensitivity. With dual outputs that can be configured to output all received stations or a user-selectable sub-set, all data received by the SD100R is passed on to the user's hardware or software.
A wide range of signal input levels ensures that the demodulator will operate with most types of terminal and a selectable DC power feed is available for powering ancillary devices such as amplifiers to boost incoming signals.
Advanced but robust, the Veripos SD100R is easy to install and operate and is an outstandingly effective and flexible unit which ensures reliable reception of Veripos data broadcast services on all types of installation.
