Global Navigation Satellite Systems Engineering, Policy, and Design
Septentrio, part of Hexagon, has announced the launch of two new products: AsteRx RB3 GNSS receiver and AsteRx RBi3 GNSS/INS. These IP69K-rated receivers push the limits of durability with the most rugged housing and components yet. They are designed to withstand the harshest of environments and have undergone rigorous testing and validation according to ISO standards.

It is well-understood now that Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) are vulnerable to radio frequency interference (RFI) due to the very low power of their received signals. RFI can take the form of jamming, in which the GNSS frequencies are overwhelmed with unwanted power or spoofing, in which “fake” GNSS signals are transmitted.
