3.1.7.1 Platform settings
u-blox receivers support different dynamic platform models (see table below) to adjust the
navigation engine to the expected application environment. These platform settings can be
changed dynamically without performing a power cycle or reset. The settings improve the receiver's
interpretation of the measurements and thus provide a more accurate position output. Setting the
receiver to an unsuitable platform model for the given application environment is likely to result in
a loss of receiver performance and position accuracy.
The dynamic platform model can be configured through the CFG-NAVSPG-DYNMODEL
configuration item. The supported dynamic platform models and their details can be seen in
Table
11
and
Table 12
below.
Platform
Description
Portable
Applications with low acceleration, e.g. portable devices. Suitable for most situations.
Stationary
Used in timing applications (antenna must be stationary) or other stationary applications.
Velocity restricted to 0 m/s. Zero dynamics assumed.
Pedestrian
Applications with low acceleration and speed, e.g. how a pedestrian would move. Low
acceleration assumed.
Automotive
Used for applications with equivalent dynamics to those of a passenger car. Low vertical
acceleration assumed.
At sea
Recommended for applications at sea, with zero vertical velocity. Zero vertical velocity assumed.
Sea level assumed.
Airborne <1g
Used for applications with a higher dynamic range and greater vertical acceleration than a
passenger car. No 2D position fixes supported.
Airborne <2g
Recommended for typical airborne environments. No 2D position fixes supported.
Airborne <4g
Only recommended for extremely dynamic environments. No 2D position fixes supported.
Wrist
Only recommended for wrist worn applications. Receiver will filter out arm motion.

Table 12: Dynamic platform model details
Dynamic platforms designed for high acceleration systems (e.g. airborne <2g) can result in a higher
standard deviation in the reported position.
If a sanity check against a limit of the dynamic platform model fails, then the position solution
is invalidated.
Table 12
above shows the types of sanity checks which are applied for a particular
dynamic platform model.
3.1.7.2 Navigation input filters
The navigation input filters in CFG-NAVSPG-* configuration group provide the input data of the
navigation engine.
