1. In rover and base mode you have to insert the correct antenna height according to RTK
software. In

SurvCE ,
for example , the distances “a” and “s” are permitted: software
will add the distance “b” to “a” (or convert “s”) to obtain “h”. For other software please read the
specific user guide.
2. In static mode you have to write the correct antenna height in .DAT or RINEX file. If you are
using
STONEX
®
GPS Processor
you have to specify the correct antenna height before
processing
.DAT
data or exporting it into RINEX format. Please read the specific manual of
STONEX
®
GPS Processor,
it should be noted that however the slant height “s” corresponds to
the definition “Line of Edge of antenna”, “a” to “Bottom of antenna” and “d” is equal to “Bottom
