TW5390 Smart GNSS Antenna SDK – TP5390SDK
Your application depends on sub 10 cm-level precision without network coverage. We get you there quickly, reliably and repeatedly.

Calian’s High Precision Tallysman Smart GNSS antennas integrate advanced receivers and other processing elements with High Precision Tallysman GNSS antennas, connecting Position, Navigation and Timing resources to host systems over digital interfaces.
Calian Smart GNSS SDK’s are a plug and play vehicle to evaluate our Smart Antennas, with tools, such as TruPrecision Software, short term trial complimentary augmentation subscription services and where needed bridge devices to adapt some serial formats to USB for plug and play operation.
The TruPrecision SDK application is a Windows application which provides an autonomous connection to stream RTK corrections and decryption keys to the TW5390 Smart Antenna via the the USB Serial Bridge, which also provides a Virtual COM Port to allow customers to connect their existing applications to the Calian Tallysman Smart GNSS Antenna high precision “corrected” position data output. The position data may be either NMEA or UBX formatted messages. ROS2® Drivers are available to integration with ROS2 open framework projects.

ARM928XF Extended-Filter Triple-Band GNSS Antenna + L-Band
Available Q2, 2024
Tallysman® Wireless is excited to announce that it has added the ARM928XF triple-band plus L-Band GNSS antenna to its industry-leading line of GNSS antenna products. The ARM928XF employs Tallysman’s patented Accutenna® technology providing GPS/QZSS L1/L2/L5, GLONASS-G1/G2/G3, Galileo E1/E5a/E5b, and BeiDou B1/B2a/B2b + L-Band coverage. The ARM928XF antenna is designed for precision triple-frequency positioning where lightweight and a low profile are important.
The ARM928XF antenna is available in two form factors one includes a 100mm integrated ground plane (weights ~140 grams) and the other one is 83mm in diameter and weighs ~138 grams. Both are ~19mm tall and support the ARINC mini bolt pattern of 2.0” x 1.66”. Tallysman’s ARM928XF is one of the smallest and lightest housed triple-band precision Mini ARINC GNSS antennas on the market. It has a very tight average phase center variation of less than 10mm for all frequencies and overall azimuths and elevation angles.
In addition to supporting two form factors, both models are available with Low Earth Orbit (LEO) qualified components.
Housed in a weatherproof (IP67) enclosure, the ARM928XF is available in four versions. Model ARM928XF-1 (ARM928XF-1-S (LEO Space qualified components)) has an integrated 100mm ground plane, Model ARM928XF-2 (ARM928XF-2-S LEO Space qualified components) is 83mm in diameter. All models are available with either a female SMA or TNC connector.
The new ARM928XF antenna supports Tallysman’s eXtended Filtering (XF) technology. Worldwide the radio frequency spectrum has become congested as many new LTE bands have been activated, and their signals or harmonic frequencies can affect GNSS antennas and receivers. In North America, the planned Ligado service, which will broadcast in the frequency range of 1526 to 1536 MHz, can affect GNSS signals. Similarly, new LTE signals in Europe [Band 32 (1452 – 1496 MHz)] and Japan [Bands 11 and 21 (1476 – 1511 MHz)] have also affected GNSS signals. Tallysman’s XF technology mitigates all these signals.

VSP6000P VeroStar™ Full GNSS Precision Passive Antenna + L-Band
The light and compact patented VeroStar™ VSP6000P antenna is designed for high-accuracy positioning while being robust and reliable. This antenna employs Tallysman®’s unique VeroStar™ technology, providing high gain over the full GNSS spectrum: GPS/QZSS-L1/L2/L5, QZSS-L6, GLONASS-G1/G2/G3, Galileo- E1/E5a/E5b/E6, BeiDou-B1/B2/B2a/B3, and NavIC-L5, including the satellite-based augmentation system (SBAS) available in the region of operation [WAAS (North America), EGNOS (Europe), MSAS (Japan), or GAGAN (India)], as well as L-band correction services.
With an exceptionally low roll-off from zenith to the horizon, each VeroStar antenna provides best-in-class tracking of GNSS and L-Band correction signals from low elevation angles. In addition, the optimized axial ratio at all elevation angles results in excellent multipath rejection, thus enabling accurate and precise code and phase tracking of GNSS and L-band correction signals. Also, a wide-band spherical antenna element enables VeroStar antennas to deliver a ±2 mm phase centre variation (PCV), making them ideal for high-precision applications, such as maritime positioning, autonomous vehicle navigation (land, sea, and air), and smart survey devices.
The housed antenna, featuring an integrated rubber bumper to absorb routine impacts, has passed a battery of tests (water pressure, altitude, salt fog, shock, drop, and vibration) to ensure it can survive the rigours of day-to-day field use.
The unique features of the VeroStar antenna guarantee it can deliver a high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and highly accurate and precise code and phase tracking of GNSS signals from all elevation angles in the most challenging environments.

TW5365 Multi-Constellation Smart GNSS Antenna with UDR
The TW5365 is a multi-constellation GNSS Receiver/Antenna fused with inertial sensor data. It is an easy-to-use tracking solution that enables high-performance positioning in places where GNSS signals are poor or not available.
The TW5365 incorporates a latest-generation GNSS receiver that supports simultaneous GPS/GLONASS/Galileo reception and a Tallysman’s Accutenna™ patch antenna. This dual-feed antenna greatly improves rejection of multipath signal interference, making it the most precise antenna for tracking in dense urban environments.
Untethered Dead Reckoning
The TW5365 Untethered Dead Reckoning (UDR) technology provides continuous navigation without requiring speed information from the vehicle. This innovative technology brings the benefits of dead reckoning to installations previously restricted to using GNSS alone, significantly reducing the cost of installation for Dead Reckoning applications.
The strength of UDR is particularly apparent under poor signal conditions, where it brings continuous positioning in urban environments, even to devices with antennas installed within the vehicle. Useful positioning performance is also available during complete signal loss, for example in parking garages or short tunnels. UDR positioning starts as soon as the ignition signal is applied and before the first GNSS fix is available.
The TW5365 may be installed in any position in a vehicle without an electrical connection to the vehicle speed sensor. The on-board accelerometer and gyroscope sensors result in a self-contained UDR which is self-calibrating and provides reliable and consistent navigation.
