GNSS - Introduction
OneFix is Digital Yacht's newly introduced hi-performance GNSS (global navigation satellite system) sensor. Using multiple satellite networks and new dual band technology, it's been designed to offer super-accurate positioning (typically better than 1m) and importantly has robust anti-spoofing algorithms built in for more reliable navigation. It can also fit to just about any navigation system (including legacy units) plus connect to iPads and tablets and the latest multi-function NMEA 2000 compatible displays. OneFix promises to bring highly accurate, more reliable navigation to any boater.
You may be familiar with the term GPS but GNSS is the more formal name for all the different satellite networks including Glonass, Galileo, Beidou and NAVIC that can now also be used for positioning. Most modern marine electronic products can process signals from some of these networks and automatically compute which to utilise to give you the best accuracy.
Another major development in GNSS over the last year has been the ongoing deployment of multi band GNSS. Signals from some satellite networks are now transmitted on L1 and L5 bands and by utilising a sophisticated dual band GNSS, you'll benefit from better accuracies and a more reliable fix in harsh conditions. Most traditional GPS's, MFD's and plotters just use L1 frequencies so can't benefit from this latest technology.
OneFix incorporates a dual band (L1 and L5) processor and works with GPS, Galileo, NavIC and Beidou to calculate a fix. Glonass (the Russian based system) is available as an option with a 2nd active antenna making for a very advanced system.
It goes a step further too by using an advanced algorithm to compare position fixes across all networks and frequencies to minimise spoofing and positional inaccuracies. The result is a highly reliable position fix which offers typically sub 1m accuracy.
It's also been designed to connect to older systems via legacy NMEA 0183 as well as more modern systems with NMEA 2000. The wireless interface allows connectivity to iPads and tablets including popular apps such as Navionics and TimeZero. Most importantly, the wireless interface allows the user to view satellite status and potential errors or issues of position spoofing. Alerts for the nav display are generated via NMEA 2000 if OneFix detects issues. It also incorporates data logging and an external event marker switch input so key points of a voyage (or even fishing hotspots) can be logged to memory. Tracks and data can be exported via your mobile device to Google map overlays.

OneFix - Wireless NMEA 2000 Navigation
- Wireless NMEA 2000 data output for charting apps such as Navionics, TimeZero, AquaMaps and many more.
- Multiplexes NMEA 2000 AIS, wind, depth, compass and speed data to the GNSS navigation output and transforms a tablet or iPad into a full function, hi-precision navigation device with L1+L5 capability.
- Raw mode for developers and programmers takes all native NMEA 2000 bus data to the wireless output.
- Configure the source of navigation data for more complex systems.
- Builds an independent navigation network for the boat.
"OneFix can transform your iPad or tablet into a hi-precision navigation system benefiting from L1 & L5 GNSS. NMEA 2000 AIS and instrument data can also be combined onto the wireless connection."

OneFix - STL Capability
OneFix also has an input for alternative positioning systems such as STL from Iridium. These use triangulation from substitute satellite networks to provide an alternative albeit less accurate position fix (approx. 50m) but have the advantage of a more powerful signal and alternative frequency outside of traditional GNSS constellations. OneFix can accept data from these systems via NMEA 0183 and switch between networks allowing for a flexible multi-input, hub-based solution.
