Model RCB-100

• NEW

The higher the required performance, the greater the barrier to adoption - a common challenge for equipment manufacturers. The RCB-100 addresses this challenge through the RCB form factor.

No PCB mounting processes, such as soldering or reflow, are required.

Eliminates the need for dedicated RF line design and minimizes the design effort required for the antenna system.

Reduces the evaluation and verification workload associated with introducing a GNSS receiver carrier board, contributing to faster system deployment.

Lowers the barrier to adopting GNSS time synchronization and provides greater flexibility in equipment design.

The RCB-100 incorporates the same GNSS engine as the GT-100 GNSS receiver module. It provides carrier-grade reliability, timing accuracy and stable reception through multi-GNSS support.

Provides timing performance compliant with international standards for telecommunications network synchronization.

Uses two frequency bands to improve reception stability and accuracy.

Supports GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, QZSS, NavIC, and SBAS, enabling the use of signals from a large number of satellites.

Supports International Atomic Time (TAI) output in addition to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).

As GNSS time synchronization is adopted by an increasing number of systems, threats such as jamming and spoofing are becoming a growing concern. The RCB-100 inherits the robustness of a GNSS engine proven through many years of operation in base stations and telecommunications infrastructure, as well as testing under real-world conditions.

Performance has been verified under real-world jamming and spoofing conditions at Jammertest, a GNSS vulnerability testing event held in Andoya, Norway.

Fully independent L5 signal acquisition maintains the same high accuracy time synchronization performance even if one frequency band is affected by interference.

Dynamically selects satellites with high signal quality to maintain high accuracy even in multipath environments.

Supports the detection and monitoring of jamming signals and the detection of spoofed signals.

Authenticates satellite signals using Galileo OSNMA and QZSS QZNMA.

Automatically detects and excludes abnormal satellite signals and maintains time output during brief interruptions in GNSS reception.

Protects the system against unauthorized firmware modifications.

The RCB-100 is designed for a broad range of applications requiring highly accurate time synchronization.

In this white paper, a FURUNO engineer specializing in GNSS timing explains how OSNMA and QZNMA should be used in real-world applications, with practical insights provided in about 20 pages.
