Correction data use cases
XPLR-HPG-1 can receive correction data over Wi-Fi or Cellular radio links via Thingstream correction
service. The NORA-W106 radio module, mounted on the C213 baseboard, provides the Wi-Fi
interface, manages the decryption keys, and handles the receipt of GNSS correction data.
To use the u-blox software solution available on GitHub, the supplied Click boards, GNSS RTK 2
(ZED F9R), L-band RTK (NEO-D9S), and LTE 2 (LARA-R6), must be plugged into specific MikroBUS
connectors on the C213 baseboard to suit the chosen use case configuration.
The following use cases describe three use cases from the u-blox software:
•
Case #1: Correction data over L-band satellite
•
Case #2: Correction data over Cellular
•
Case #3: Correction data over Wi-Fi
