§6.2 RTK measurement
RTK is the abbreviation of Real-Time Kinematic measurements.
RTK technology is the real-time dynamic differential carrier phase positioning technology,
combining global satellite navigation and positioning technology with data communication
technology which includes base station and rover station. Base station transmits the data by radio
or network to the rover station, which will perform differential analysis, thus providing real-time
coordinates of the measurement point in the specified coordinate system.
Depending on the different ways of differential signals transmission, there are two methods for
RTK operation by using the radio and internet (GPRS).
