The User Manual is targeted for the technicians with certain knowledge about GNSS  Receiver but not for the general readers.

1. Overview

UB4B0M is a new generation compact RTK board based on NebulasII high performance  and high accuracy GNSS SoC. It supports signals including BDS B1I/B2I/B3I/B1C/B2a,  GPS L1/L2/L5, GLONASS L1/L2 and Galileo E1/E5a/E5b. UB4B0M features classic small  size, supports chip-level multi-path mitigation, and delivers millimeter-level carrier phase  observations and centimeter-level RTK positioning. UB4B0M is particularly suitable for  surveying and mapping, high-precision positioning and navigation application.  

UB4B0M adopts UNICORECOMM’s new generation all-system multi-core high-precision SoC – NebulasII. The chip is based on the mature core technology of Nebulas baseband  chip, supports 432 channels, and integrates a 600MHz ARM processor and a special  high-speed floating-point processor, yielding stronger satellite navigation signal process  ability. Making full use of the high-performance data sharing ability and the super  simplified real-time operation system, UB4B0M optimizes the multi-dimensional RTK  matrix pipeline computing, which considerably enhances the RTK process ability and  realizes the multi-system multi-frequency RTK calculating (more than 32 satellites).  

The newly designed tri-band RTK engine of UB4B0M can process observation data from multiple frequencies of BDS, GPS, GLONASS and Galileo, which can significantly improve the RTK initialization speed, measurement accuracy and reliability in harsh signal environment like urban areas and shade of trees, and realize long-baseline centimeter-level RTK positioning.

3. Hardware Integration Guide3.1 Design Notes

For the normal operation of UB4B0M, the following signals need to be connected correctly:

  • The module’s VCC should be monotonic when powered on, the initial level  should be lower than 0.4V, and the undershoot and ringing should be guaranteed to be within 5% VCC
  • Use VCC pin to provide reliable power source and earth all GND pin of the board
  • MMCX interface provides 4.6±0.2 V feed, and notice 50Ω impedance matching  for the circuit. When no antenna is connected to the port of antenna in the  module, which means there is no load, use a multimeter to test and the voltage  supply is DC 4.8 V ~ 5.4 V. When the RF port of the module is connected with the  antenna and the working current is 30~100 mA at normal temperature, the  antenna feed is DC 4.6 V ± 0.2 V.
  • Make sure the output of serial port 1. Users need to use this serial port to receive  the positioning data and to update the software In order to acquire satisfactory performance, the following points should also be  particularly noticed:
  • Power supply: Satisfactory performance cannot be achieved without a stable and  low-ripple power source. The peak value of the ripple voltage should not exceed  50mVpp. In addition to adopting LDO to guarantee uninterruptible power supply,  the following points should also be taken into consideration:
    ‒ Widen power supply wires or use split copper pour surface to transmit  current
    ‒ Try to place LDO close to the board
    ‒ Power supply wires should not pass through any high power and high  inductance devices such as magnetic coils
  • UART interface ensures that the corresponding signal and baud rate of the main  device are consistent with those of UB4B0M.
  • Antenna wires should be as short and smooth as possible; avoid sharp angle  and pay attention to impedance matching.
  • Avoid wiring right beneath UB4B0M.
  • Keep the board away as far as possible from any high temperature airflow.

When the RF port  of the module is connected with the antenna and the working current is 30~100 mA at  normal temperature, the antenna feed is DC4.6 V ± 0.2 V.

4. Connection and Setting
4.1 Electrostatic Protection

Many components on UB4B0M are vulnerable to electrostatic damage, which will then affect IC circuits and other components. Please take the following electrostatic protection measures before opening the anti-static blister box:

  • Electrostatic discharge (ESD) may damage components. Please operate the  board on the anti-static work table and at the same time wear an anti-static  wristband and use conductive foam pads. If no anti-static bench is available,  please wear an anti-static wristband and connect it to the metal part of the  machine for anti-static protection.
  • When plugging or unplugging the board, please do not touch the components on  the board directly.

After taking out the board, please check the components carefully for obvious loose  or damage.

4.2 Installation Guide

UB4B0M is delivered in the form of board, allowing users to assemble it flexibly according  to application scenarios and market needs. The following figure shows a typical UB4B0M  installation method using a set of evaluation kit (EVK). Users can also, in the same way,  use other receiver casings to install.

Installation DiagramFigure 4-1 UB4B0M Installation Diagram

To ensure efficient installation, please prepare the following tools before installing the  board:

● UB4B0M board and EVK

● User manual

● Command manual

● UPrecise display and control software

● Qualified antennas

● MCX antennas and connecting cables

● Desktop or laptop (Win7 and above) with serial ports, installed relevant serial  driver and UPrecise software

Step 1. For the UB4B0M EVK users, align UB4B0M positioning holes and pins with EVK.

Note: If the EVK connector hole is 24-pin, connect the middle 24 pins of the board with the  connector). EVK provides power supply and standard communication interface to the board to  communicate with peripheral devices (such as PC, CAN and USB devices, etc.)

Step 2. Select a GNSS antenna with appropriate gain, and set it in a stable and open area.  Connect the antenna with the board through coaxial radio frequency cable. When  the antenna is installed, the MCX antenna interface on UB4B0M corresponds to  the antenna signal interface.

antenna wires

Figure 4-2 UB4B0M Connecting to Antenna RF Wires

Note: The RF connector on the board is MMCX; please select the appropriate cable according to  the packaging. The input signal gain of the antenna connector should be within 25 to 36dB. Plug  and unplug the MCX RF head vertically and the time of this operation is limited. Improper  plugging or unplugging will lead to damage to the RF head or MCX male connector head.

Step 3. Connect the PC to EVK through serial ports.

Step 4. Connect a 12V adapter to the EVK power source, and switch on to power  UB4B0M.

6.1 Base Station Setting

RTK base station (fixed base station) is to install the receiver antenna at a fixed position and it will not move during the whole process. At the same time, the precise coordinates of the known measuring station and the received satellite information are directly or after being processed sent to the receiver of the rover station (pending position) in real time. The rover station receives the satellite observations as well as information from the base station to conduct the RTK positioning calculation and realize centimeter-level or  millimeter-level positioning.

6.2 Rover Station Setting

RTK rover station (mobile station) receives the differential correction information of the  base station in real time, and at the same time, it receives the satellite signal for RTK  positioning calculation, realizing RTK high-precision positioning. The receiver can  adaptively identify the ports and formats of RTCM data input. Common commands of the  RTK rover station are:

6.3 Mobile Base Station Setting

The mobile base station is different from the RTK base station, which is a fixed station with  known and precise coordinates. The mobile base station is in a state of motion, and at the  same time, the received satellite information is directly or after being processed sent to the receiver (pending point) of the rover station in real time. The receiver receives the satellite observation value and the information of the mobile base station for relative positioning to determine the location of the rover station relative to the mobile base station.
