Euro-L5

NovAtel’s Euro-L5TM offers superior tracking of multiple L5 GPS or GEO signals in a Euro form factor card or a rugged enclosure.

Product Datasheet

Available models

Exceptional L5 GEO tracking

The Euro-L5 tracks up to four L5 WAAS GEO signals and decodes the L5 WAAS navigation message.  Compliant with RTCA DO-261, NAVSTAR GPS L5 Signal Specification, the receiver also features digital pulse blanking for mitigation of in-band pulsed RF interference, resulting in improved tracking reliability. 

Full range of data

The data provided by the Euro-L5 includes satellite range information, raw WAAS frame data with parity checks,
automatic gain control (AGC) information, and receiver configuration and status details.  A versatile ASCII or binary interface provides access to the data over two high speed RS-232 serial ports capable of 230,400 bits per second.

Multiple integration options

The Euro-L5 is available as an OEM receiver in the standard Eurocard form factor, which ensures ease of integration without sacrificing flexibility.  For systems requiring a ready-to-use solution, the Euro-L5 is also available in the EuroPak™-L5.  This rugged enclosure protects against the elements and its standard DB-9 and TNC connectors provide for quick installation.

L5 GPS positioning

In addition to superior L5 GEO tracking, the Euro-L5 features L5 GPS positioning.  With a single command, the receiver can be configured for L5 GPS tracking on all four channels to generate a highly-accurate PVT solution.  Position data derived from the L5 signal is expected to provide accuracy comparable to that offered by the L2 P(Y) code.
