Correction types
The GPS-Base can transmit differential corrections in one of three different formats as shown
in Table 3. The output type should match one supported by the mobile receiver.
Transmission frequency
The rate at which each message type is broadcast is listed in the tables below. The limited
frequency is automatically selected when the Limit output corrections option is selected in
NAVbase.
Table 3.
Differential correction formats supported by the GPS-Base

Purpose
RTCA
The RTCA format is suitable for GPS differential corrections but is not suitable for
GLONASS
RTCA2
The RTCA2 format is suitable for GPS and GLONASS differential corrections
RTCMv3
The RTCMv3 format is suitable for GPS and GLONASS differential corrections
