There are a large variety of issues that can affect GNSS satellites and the position accuracy of the GRADE system. Many of these issues are due to factors inherent in the technology. These factors should be understood and accounted for when operating the GRADE system. Some of the common issues are:
Poor satellite configuration
Loss of satellite signalPoor Satellite Configuration
This value is measured as Position Dilution Of Precision (PDOP). The GRADE display will allow the operator to monitor the PDOP. PDOP should be as low as possible, and will change throughout the day as satellites go through orbits.PDOP will also be affected if there are obstructions that prevent view of the sky such as trees, buildings, and other terrain. PDOP will tend to introduce an offset from desired grade, but PDOP issues can also introduce grade roughness as satellites appear and disappear.Loss of Satellite Signal
Loss of satellite signals eventually results in an error message on the GRADE display. The message indicates that the system no longer has a high precision location established. GRADE requires a Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) Fixed type of position solution. If signals are lost, RTK Float or Autonomous modes for the position solution are degenerated. This action will result in poor accuracy.Load Assist and Sequence Assist do not require positions to be calculated from the GNSS receiver.
