no longer available The CSI Wireless SBA-1 is a compact,
combination beacon receiver and antenna in a single enclosure. It is used to
receive free DGPS signals broadcast by the networks of Medium Frequency
radiobeacons deployed worldwide. It augments a separate GPS receiver with
accuracy-improving correction data, resulting in a positioning accuracy of one
to five meters 95 per cent of the time, depending on the GPS receiver
architecture and sophistication. Compatible with most Garmin GPS and most Magellan GPS
units. Similar to the ABX-3 and MBX-3S beacon receiver, the SBA-1 features automatic hands-free operation. The SBA-1 contains both the CSI Wireless SBX beacon module and an innovative electric field beacon antenna in a single enclosure, often referred to as a smart antenna. Featuring advanced digital signal processing techniques, the SBA-1 delivers reliable demodulation of DGPS data from the beacon broadcasts, even in noisy environments. The SBA-1 outputs the resulting data in the industry standard RTCM SC-104 format accepted by differential-ready GPS receivers. To configure and monitor receiver status, the SBA-1 also supports the NMEA 0183 protocol. Operation of the SBA-1 requires only power input (between 9 and16 VDC) and serial interface to an separate GPS product (RS-232 or RS-422 interface level). Product Brochure is available here.
