South G2 Product Review

The Galaxy G2 adopts a new self developed digital radio module with FAIRLINK protocol to achieve the typical working range as 8km. The transmission bandwidth of FAIRINK becomes larger, which perfectly solves the problems of large data volume of multiple constellations transmission. And the power consumption can reduce about 60% in the same amount of data transmission compare to the traditional RTK.

Unboxing The South Galaxy G2 RTK GNSS receiver

Ultimate goals of full signals tracking

Galaxy G2 adopts high and low frequency integrated antenna design, which using low profile design technology to reduce the physical difference between high and low frequency bands, improves phase center consistency.And the applied frequency selective radiation mechanism would enhance antenna anti-interference ability.And combines with high performance GNSS board, G2 fully supports all of running satellite constellations, especially BeiDou III global satellite signals.

The fact moving ahead into the future

Galaxy G2 is integrated with an advanced SoC which is a chip comes with the advantage of high integration and low power consumption, efficiently suppress the interference signals, and obtain higher quality observation data from satellite constellations. G2 will bring a leap-forward experience of RTK performance.

Worry-free surveying

The new generation of SoC platform gives RTK more stable performance and lower power consumption. The built-in 6800mAh high-performance battery can support 15 hours* of continuous operation. G2 adopts Type-C charging interface which supports PD rapid charging, the battery can be full charged in 3 hours that supports full-day work.

Measure whatever you want

Galaxy G2 is integrated with a new generation Inertial Measurement Unit which makes tilt measurement more stable and accurate, the coordinates would be corrected automatically according to the inclination direction and angle of the pole, without strict leveling the receiver to measure the point at will, it helps surveyors boost productivity by 30 percent.

Smart reminder of base station attitude

the South Galaxy G2 has a Built-in high-precision tilt attitude module which associates with receiver attitude, when the base station moves or falls, it can accurately distinguish and promptly remind.

The BDS-3 navigation satellites system has been completed for one year. Now SOUTH has released new GNSS products to fully support BDS-3 constellation, here are some improvements on the new products

Tracking more satellites

We tested the new SoC GNSS board receiver in Guangzhou, China. The receiver tracks more than 50 satellites: 9 GPS, 7 GLONASS, 6 GALILEO, 3 QZSS and 25 BDS (12 of them are BDS-2, 13 of them are BDS-3). More satellites in the sky will make GNSS receivers get signals easier and faster. SOUTH new SoC GNSS board has fully supported BDS-3 satellites, so the receiver performance in the field has been greatly improved.

Supporting the new signal band of BDS-3
The BDS-3 constellation has three open service signals: B1C, B2a and B2b (B2b signal provides the PPP service), SOUTH SoC GNSS board receivers can track and use all of them at the same time. The above picture shows the N/E/H errors on different testing: the errors declined with more BDS-3 satellites being used.

Fixed with QZSS+GPS+GLONASS+GALILEO+BDS

Integrated with the SoC gnss board and low-profile antenna, SOUTH new gnss receivers even can track and use QZSS to improve the accuracy, so you may find that the receiver Fixed with QZSS+GPS+GLONASS+GALILEO
+BDS.

Getting Fix faster and stably

To transfer the massive differential data flow caused by more and more satellites in the sky, the exclusive “Farlink” protocol on SOUTH new internal radio module has a larger bandwidth, to make GNSS receivers get fix faster and stably. Normally, in urban area,  the new radio can transfer 2-5km at power 1W, in suburban district the distance could reach 8km.
