SMART7-S Product Sheet

SMART7-S
GNSS SMART antenna featuring
powerful OEM7 and SPAN technology
Maximum performance
The OEM7 receiver and VEXXIS antenna inside the SMART7-S allow it to receiveBenefits

GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, Galileo and QZSS signals. Multiple GNSS signals deliver
better satellite availability under variable terrain and environmental conditions. The
SMART7-S also receives L-Band signals providing easy access to the world-wide
correction signals provided by TerraStar.

• Centimeter-level accuracy using
TerraStar-C PRO, TerraStar-X and RTK• High quality measurements andIntegrated inertials
The SMART7-S includes deeply-coupled GNSS+Inertial Navigation System (INS)SPAN technology from Hexagon | NovAtel and is optimized for the unique dynamics
commonly experienced in demanding applications like precision agriculture andmachine control. SPAN technology provides accurate attitude information andterrain compensation that can simplify the development of vehicle guidancesystems and bridge GNSS signal outages caused by trees, buildings and otherobstacles.

ALIGN

stable phase center for precisionapplications• Integrated IMU for accurate vehicle
attitude, terrain compensation andbridging of GNSS outages• Simplified setup and configuration
with optional onboard Setup& Monitor (Web) and wirelessconnectivity

ALIGN technology from NovAtel is optionally supported when combined with asecond SMART7 or NovAtel receiver to provide relative heading and position thatcan be used to guide accessory vehicles.

Maximum accuracy
The SMART7-S can provide a range of performance accuracies from dual-frequency
GLIDE to full centimeter -level RTK. TerraStar services provide decimeter orcentimeter-level accuracy using globally transmitted satellite corrections.

Maximum connectivity
The SMART7-S supports RS-232 and CAN bus communications. Optional 2.4 GHz
Wi‑Fi and 10/100 Ethernet connectivity allows connection to a vehicle’s Wi‑Fi
network, routers, terminals or other SMART7 antennas. Wi-Fi and Ethernet
connectivity can also be used to receive RTK or TerraStar corrections over NTRIP.

Durable, field-ready design

Features• GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, Galileo,
QZSS plus TerraStar correction signal
reception• Simultaneously track up to 3 TerraStarCorrection Service satellites• Optional heading and relative
positioning using ALIGN• Integrated NTRIP client using optional
Ethernet/Wi-Fi interface• Advanced ISOBUS-compatible CANThis rugged SMART7-S antenna is enclosed in a durable, waterproof housing thatinterface supports NMEA2000,

1. Typical values (open sky conditions). Performance specifications subject to GNSS system characteristics, Signal-in-Space (SIS) operational degradation, ionospheric and tropospheric conditions, satellite geometry, baseline length,
multipath effects and the presence of intentional or unintentional interference sources. 2. GPS only. 3. Requires subscription to TerraStar data service. Subscriptions available from NovAtel. 4. RMS/95% accuracy under idealconditions and may vary based upon user’s geographic region, ionospheric activity, scintillation levels, GNSS availability and constellation health, multipath conditions and presence of interference sources. 5. Typical value. No
almanac or ephemerides and no approximate position or time. 6. Typical value. Almanac and recent ephemerides saved and approximate position and time entered. 7. Export licensing restricts operation to a maximum of 515 meters
per second. 8. Time accuracy does not include biases due to RF or antenna delay. 9. With SPAN model firmware installed. 10. Power consumption values for GPS L1/L2. 11. 10s Outages are the Position/Velocity/Attitude error that has
accumulated over the GNSS outage duration, initial accuracies are dependent on the positioning mode in which you are operating.
