May 29, 2025

Furuno Electric Co., Ltd. (headquartered in Nishinomiya, Japan) conducted the following session lecture and exhibited a booth at the Workshop on Synchronisation and Timing Systems (WSTS) held in Savannah, USA, from 12 to 15 May 2025.

Session Lecture

  • Title : Performance Assessment of GNSS Timing Using Advanced Grades of PVT Engines
  • Presenter : Takaki Tominaga
  • Schedule : May 15, 2025
  • Summary :
    The authors have been developing various grades of positioning engines for automotive navigation use. The latest engine achieves lane-level navigation without utilizing any correction services. This presentation introduces the timing stability of state-of-the-art engines: the aforementioned submeter-level using dual-frequency multi-constellation observation, and centimeter-level using PPP (Precise Point Positioning). Conventional meter-grade engines can achieve a 1PPS (one pulse per second) stability of more than tens of nanoseconds, while submeter and centimeter engines can achieve a few nanoseconds, offering greater accuracy than conventional engines, even in automotive applications.
