20 OEMV Family Installation and Operation User Manual Rev 5B
Chapter 1 Introduction
1.1 Overview of the OEMV Family
The OEMV family offers single, dual and triple-frequency GNSS receivers and the first integrated L-
band capability without the need for a separate board. The OEMV-based products are GLONASS-
enabled and are capable of full code and real-time kinematic (RTK) positioning.
This family is a group of high-performance GNSS receivers capable of receiving and tracking
different combinations of GPS L1 C/A, L2C, L2 P(Y) and L5 code and carrier, GLONASS L1 and L2
code and carrier, and L-Band (CDGPS and OmniSTAR) on a maximum of 72 channels. SBAS support
is standard on all OEMV family receivers. OEMV adaptability offers multi-system, frequency, and
size configurations for any application requirement. Refer to the GPS+ Reference Manual for an
overview of each of the above signal types, available from our website at http://www.novatel.com/
support/docupdates.htm.
Patented Pulse Aperture Correlator (PAC) with multipath mitigation technologies, and a powerful 32-
bit processor, enable the OEMV family of receivers to offer multipath-resistant processing at high
data update rates. Excellent acquisition and re-acquisition times allow the receivers to operate in
environments where very high dynamics and frequent interruption of signals can be expected.
The OEMV-2 and OEMV-3 are equipped with our new AdVance RTK engine for RT-2. This means a
lower ambiguity error rate, faster narrow lane convergence (even at long baseline lengths) and more
fixes in a wider range of conditions.
In addition, the OEMV family offers system integrators unparalleled flexibility in areas such as
configuration and specification of output data and control signals. Multiple software models are
available, allowing you to better fit the receiver performance to the application while maintaining the
option for a compatible upgrade path.
The RoHS-compliant OEMV family includes the OEMV-1, OEMV-1G, OEMV-2 and OEMV-3 cards,
the DL-V3, ProPak-V3, FlexPak-V2, FlexPak-V1G and FlexPak-V1 enclosures, and the SMART-V1
Antenna. The cards, provided as printed circuit boards, are ideal for custom integration.
