What's inside your GNSS rover.

[Ian Gillespie]

This is part 1 of an interesting article in the XYHt Magazine about what is in your GHSS rover.

I expect that in the near future Alex Liggett will post instructions on how to hot wire one with a resistor to overclock it.

So far GNSS Rovers think far faster than I can, so for the time being they are safe. The next hot-rodding project, inspired by Robert Odolinski's presentation at S+SNZ might have to be getting my smartphone running as an RTK rover.

".... getting my smartphone running as an RTK rover."

I think this also requires one of those special caps that has a pocket in the top of it that you slip your smartphone into in order to ensure maximum sky visibility.... 
(Those caps with wee propellers are not desirable...)

Channels are explained.
Still not entirely sure about what a Field Programmable Gate Array does

This is what we have all been looking forward to.

Its an exciting conclusion covering high-rate RTK, FGO and EKF based algorithms.

Quite an eye-opener if, like me, you thought the GNSS worked using MAGIC or there was a little tiny person inside with a little tiny theodolite.
