Risk assessment Since the change of the GNSS antenna is visible visually on PCB, in order to avoid problems at the customs of certain countries, we suggest informing the relevant authorities about the change of the GNSS antenna as soon as possible. The new GNSS antenna provides an equivalent track quality and performance level, as verified through testing. Testing results:
Device Antenna Mounting conditions* Avg. Difference
from precise track** [m]
FMT100_162 New Excellent 2,59
FMT100_745 Old Excellent 4,43
FMT100_170 New Good 3,45
FMT100_937 Old Good 4,68
FMT100_238 New Normal 3,93
FMT100_705 Old Normal 4,92
FMT100_071 New Poor 4,98
FMT100_638 Old Poor 5,05

*Mounting conditions - device position under the hood from a poor location (thick metal layer above device) to an excellent location (thin metal layer above device)
**Avg. Difference from precise track - measured by comparing positioning data from devices and RTK (Real-time kinematic positioning) system data which is considered precise data. The smaller avg. difference from precise track, means better track quality.
