System biases can introduce errors, refer to our

for more information. In most cases, a data link between the
base station and rover station (two NovAtel receivers) is required to receive corrections. SBAS
corrections can be accomplished with one receiver and are exceptions to the base/rover concept.
Generally, a link capable of data throughput at a rate of 9600 bits per second and less than 4.0 s latency
is recommended.
Once the base and rover are set up, configure them as shown in the configuration examples that follow in
Section 3.3.1, Base Station Configuration
on page 22 and
Section 3.3.2, Rover Station Configuration
on
page 23.
