A turnkey Beacon
DGPS system network consists of Beacon Broadcast Stations
and Central Control Stations. The Broadcast Stations and
Control Stations communicate via dedicated local area
network and/or by a modem line(s).
Leica Geosystems has developed an extensive Windows NT
based Broadcast Station and Control Station software.
The software is user friendly and complies with RSIM (Reference
Station Integrity Monitor) protocol.
Leica Geosystems designs the DGPS Beacon Systems in accordance
with the international standards for DGPS Beacon broadcasts
adopted by IALA.
Leica created several new products as part of the beacon
system development program. Leica's GPS navigators were
some of the first to be enhanced with beacon system capabilities,
allowing seamless integration with the DGPS Beacon System.
As a result, Leica Geosystems is able to offer a complete
turn-key system with equipment supplied from a single
manufacturer. This ensures overall responsibility for
the proper integration and operational performance of
the entire system.
