Nov 25, 2024

Furuno Electric Co., Ltd. (headquartered in Nishinomiya, Japan) conducted the following session lecture and exhibited a booth at ITSF2024 (International Timing and Sync Forum 2024) held in Sevilla, Spain, from 4 to 7 November 2024.

Session Lecture

  • Schedule : 7 November, 2024 Session time 15:30 - 15:45
  • Title : Time Synchronization Using LEO-PNT in Urban Canyons
  • Presenter : Takaki Tominaga, Manager, R&D Section, System Product Division, Furuno
  • Summary:
    The authors have been developing various grades of positioning engines implemented in low-cost chipsets: meter-level, submeter-level using dual-frequency multi-constellation observation, and centimeter-level using PPP (Precise Point Positioning). The conventional meter-grade engines can achieve a 1PPS (one pulse per second) stability of several tens of nanoseconds. State-of-the-art engines can achieve 1PPS stability of a few nanoseconds or less, offering greater accuracy than conventional engines. In this presentation, the stability of 1PPS in real tests with the above-mentioned positioning engines is evaluated and discussed.
