Harxon Launches Advanced GNSS Solutions for Precision Farming

Harxon has introduced its innovative TS122 series of smart antennas, specifically designed to meet the rigorous demands of precision agriculture. This new technology substantially enhances GNSS availability, accuracy, and reliability.

Model Variants for Tailored Performance

The TS122 series includes two distinct models: EUAA and EUUB, each offering unique performance capabilities. This variety allows Harxon to provide optimal solutions tailored to specific agricultural applications.

High-Performance Capabilities

For applications requiring centimeter-level precision, especially in challenging terrains and environments with obstructed GNSS signals, the TS122 EUAA model stands out. It boasts a point-to-point accuracy of ±10cm and incorporates STANDALONE technology, ensuring reliable performance even in demanding conditions.

Conversely, the TS122 EUUB model offers a single-point circular error probable (CEP) of 1.5m and a point-to-point accuracy of ±15cm. Both models are equipped with RS-232 serial ports and Bluetooth connectivity, facilitating easy configuration through a dedicated app on smartphones or tablets.

Robust Design and Versatile Installation

• The TS122 series features an integrated GPS+GLONASS+BDS+GALILEO board housed in a rugged IP67 enclosure.Its design simplifies installation with three mounting options—screw, magnetic, or pole—making it suitable for various agricultural off-road vehicles.
• Incorporating Harxon’s SLIDE positioning technology, the TS122 ensures ultra-smooth positioning and exceptional pass-to-pass accuracy, ideal for both manual guidance and automated steering applications. It maintains steady output even in environments with poor satellite tracking or brief signal interruptions.
• Typically mounted atop machinery, the smart antenna outputs coordinates based on its position. However, when operating on slopes, discrepancies can arise between the antenna’s projected position and the actual reference point. The TS122 addresses this with a terrain compensation algorithm that corrects deviations caused by the vehicle’s roll and pitch, enhancing operational efficiency and reducing costs.
• the TS122 EUAA model utilizes STANDALONE technology to achieve centimeter-level accuracy from the first navigation point without needing external support. This technology leverages navigation data from the receiver and employs advanced algorithms to minimize errors from satellite orbit, clock discrepancies, and atmospheric conditions, resulting in superior positioning accuracy.

Empowering Agricultural Innovation

agricultural manufacturers can now leverage this cutting-edge positioning technology, which combines GNSS capabilities with wireless connectivity, to achieve superior tracking performance at competitive prices.

With Harxon’s smart antenna, agricultural machinery can maintain precise steering even in challenging environments. The company attributes its strong reputation in the agricultural sector to the ease of integration and the consistent performance of its smart antennas.
