FARWATER BASE UNIT (FBU)

FBU is a solid weather resistant unit including:

  • Receiver with antenna for L1 band, providing receiving of GNSS signals from GLONASS, GPS and Galileo;
  • Generator of the navigation data and the crude measurement data based on the carrier code and phase (passed for the high accuracy calculation to the processor module – Farwater -M4, which is the precession navigation module).

Farwater-M4 (FM4) is a part of the deformation monitoring system for the infrastructure.

The information from FBU is used also by the mobile units Farwater-A1, Farwater-2, Farwater-A3 in the high accuracy differential navigation system.

FBU is equipped by the external VHF, GSM/GPRS or Wi-Fi modem upon the selected type of the link.

Depending on the selected system configuration FBU may be used like a base station or the sensor.
