PX1172RD-20
RTK Dead Reckoning Receiver for
Decimeter Level Accuracy Application
The PX1172RD-20 GNSS RTK Dead-Reckoning receiver
module combines RTK position data, gyroscope data
(measuring
turning
(measuring distance traveled) to formulate position
solution. This enables accurate navigation solution in
poor signal environment or signal blocked area. The
PX1172RD-20 is ideal for 4-wheel vehicle applications
requiring accurate continuous navigation.
PX1172RD-20
can
Reckoning (ADR) mode if the vehicle wheel-tick

signal
Odometer-less Dead Reckoning (ODR) mode if the
odometer signal is not connected.
The Extended Kalman Filter algorithm combines GNSS
and sensor data with weighting function dependent on
GNSS signal quality. In poor signal reception area, the
position error is reduced by dead reckoning.
The PX1172RD-20 with dead-reckoning feature, position
is output as soon as power is applied to the module
without the need of getting GPS/GNSS position fix.
The receiver is suitable for RTK applications that require
high performance continuous positioning and velocity
data.

  • Page 3 BLOCK DIAGRAM Module block schematic Active antenna is required to use with PX1172RD-20. The received signal goes through a signal splitter, to individual L1 and L2/L5 SAW filters to remove out-band interference, then to the PX100-2R-01A GNSS receiver chip for RTK signal processing. Using correction data from an RTK base station, the PX1172RD-20 computes the antenna position to decimeter-level accuracy relative to the base station.

  • Page 11 ODOMETER and DIRECTION pins. When changing between ADR and ODR mode of operation, cold start command should be issued, or the V_BCKP power should be removed such that internal DR state will be cleared and PX1172RD-20 will re-do DR calibration. CALIBRATION of DR PX1172RD-20 performs calibration of gyro bias and odometer scale automatically using GNSS.
  • Page 12 RTK performance. POWER SUPPLY REQUIREMENT PX1172RD-20 requires a stable power supply, avoid ripple on VCC pin (<50mVpp). Power supply noise can affect the receiver’s sensitivity. Bypass capacitors should be placed close to the module VCC pin, with values adjusted depending on the amount and type of noise present on the supply line.
  • Page 13 HANDLING GUIDELINE The PX1172RD-20 modules are rated MSL4, must be used for SMT reflow mounting within 72 hours after taken out from the vacuumed ESD-protective moisture barrier bag in factory condition < 30degC / 60% RH. If this floor life time is exceeded, or if the received ESD-protective moisture barrier bag is not in vacuumed state, then the device need to be pre-baked before SMT reflow process.
  • Page 14 RTK Usage Guideline Below conditions are required for getting RTK fix solution. If the conditions are not met, PX1172RD-20 will only have float or DGPS/3D solution and behave like a normal GNSS receiver. * Base and rover distance under 30Km...
