Why Higher Precision Matters and the Verticals It Serves 

Our panel of experts from Telit Cinterion and Swift Navigation examines problems that higher precision can address in verticals and applications, including: 

  • Drones 
  • Robots  
  • E-mobility 

Solution Overview: SE868K5-RTK and SE868SY-D GNSS Modules

Telit Cinterion’s SE868K5-RTK module is a high-precision Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver. It integrates RTK technology and can achieve centimeter-level accuracy. This module offers optimal immunity for seamless operation near cellular or other radios.  

The SE868SY-D module is an improved precision GNSS receiver. It supports the latest generation of DGNSS corrections for reliable sub-meter accuracy even in difficult environments. 

The SE868K5-RTK and SE868SY-D are members of the xE868 form factor family and share a common reference design for easy migration. Their compact size (11 x 11 mm) is ideal for size-constrained devices. 

These modules use dual frequencies (L1/E1 and L5/E5), enhancing precision and reducing multipath effects. Both modules use the RTCM protocol and can output raw data to support RTK applications. This enables developers to manage high-precision applications easily at the host level.  

In addition, these modules can receive corrections from the cloud-based Swift Navigation’s Skylark Precise Positioning service. The SE868K5-RTK can also ingest corrections from local base stations. 

Our session features an unboxing and setup video. We guide you through the installation and show how quickly you can start using the SE868K5-RTK module. Furthermore, we will show how easily our cellular modules and connectivity can streamline your test setup by providing corrections from Swift Navigation’s endpoint to the GNSS modules. 

Test Data Insights for RTK and DGNSS Modules

In May 2024, we conducted tests to showcase our RTK and DGNSS modules’ capabilities in real-world situations. The results demonstrate the differences between standard positioning systems and our higher-precision modules.
