PwrPak7D-E1 Product Sheet

PwrPak7D-E1
Compact dual-antenna enclosure
delivers leading SPAN GNSS+INStechnology from Hexagon | NovAtel
Dual-antenna input
Multi-frequency, dual-antenna input allows the PwrPak7D-E1 to harness thepower of NovAtel RTK and ALIGN functionality. This makes the PwrPak7D-E1 idealfor ground, marine or aircraft-based systems, providing industry-leading GNSS
multi‑constellation heading and position data in static and dynamic environments.

World-leading GNSS+INS technology
SPAN GNSS+INS technology brings together two different but complementarytechnologies: Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) positioning and InertialNavigation System (INS). The absolute accuracy of GNSS positioning with the stabilityof inertial measurement unit (IMU) gyro and accelerometer measurements generatea 3D navigation solution that is stable and continuously available. Deeply coupling theGNSS and inertial measurements through SPAN technology enables better bridging
through GNSS interruptions and rapid reacquisition of signals.

PwrPak7D-E1 advantages
The PwrPak7D-E1 contains an Epson G320N MEMS IMU to deliver world-class SPAN
technology in an integrated, single-box solution. This product is commercially
exportable and provides an excellent price/performance/size GNSS+INS solution.

Future-proofed scalability
Capable of tracking all present and upcoming GNSS constellations and satellite
signals, the PwrPak7D-E1 is a robust, high-precision receiver that is software
upgradeable in the field to provide the custom performance required for yourapplication demands.
The PwrPak7D-E1 has a powerful OEM7 GNSS engine, integrated MEMS IMU, built-in
Wi-Fi, onboard NTRIP client and server support and 16 GB of internal storage.

Precise thinking makes it possible
Our GNSS products have set the standard in quality and performance for over
20 years. State-of-the-art lean manufacturing facilities in our North American
headquarters produce the industry’s most extensive line of OEM receivers, antennas
and subsystems.

1. Typical values. 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. 2. Model-configurable to track L5/E5a (all / Galileo) through L2 (GPS) or L3/E5b/B2 (GLONASS / Galileo / BeiDou) through L2 (GLONASS). See manual for details.
3. Hardware ready for L5. 4. E1bc and E6bc support only 5. L-Band and SBAS reception on primary antenna only. 6. GPS-only. 7. Requires a subscription to a TerraStar data service. Subscriptions available from NovAtel. 8. Typicalvalue. No almanac or ephemerides and no approximate position or time. 9. Typical value. Almanac and recent ephemerides saved and approximate position and time entered. 10. Time accuracy does not include biases due to RF orantenna delay. 11. Export licensing restricts operation to a maximum of 515 meters per second, message output impacted above 500 m/s. 12. Supplied by IMU manufacturer. 13. Typical values using serial port communication without
interference mitigation. Consult the OEM7 User Documentation for power supply considerations 14. 1 ppm should be added to all position values to account for additional error due to baseline length. 15. Post-processing results using
Inertial Explorer software. The survey data used to generate these statistics had frequent changes in azimuth.
