Positioning system host DPS112
The DPS112 is a high-performance, cost-effective DGNSS (Differential Global
Navigation Satellite System) sensor from the Norwegian company KONGSBERG,
belonging to their mature DPS product series. This device is designed
specifically for marine and near-shore applications, emphasizing high
availability, reliability, and decimeter-level positioning accuracy, suitable
for ship navigation, offshore platforms, and mission-critical scenarios.
Technical Specifications and Performance
Decimeter-Level Accuracy: Achieves 10cm (95% CEP) accuracy globally via
Fugro Seastar G2 service, supporting GPS L1/L2, GLONASS L1/L2, and SBAS (such as
WAAS, EGNOS) signals.
Global Coverage: Seastar SGG service provides orbit and clock bias
correction, achieving sub-meter-level global positioning regardless of reference
station distance.
Positioning Accuracy: <0.5 meters (standard configuration), achieving
decimeter-level accuracy via Seastar G2 service, with high global consistency
and unrestricted by reference station distance.

satellite coverage, improving signal availability and anti-interference
capabilities, especially performing excellently in signal-obstructed
environments (such as densely populated island areas, mountainous coastal
areas).
Interfaces and Communication: Ethernet, USB, NMEA 0183/2000, PROFIBUS,
Modbus; supports RTCM standard input; configurable external interface output;
compatible with various control systems.
Multi-interface design: 3 serial ports (2 NMEA outputs, 1 RTCM input,
supporting RS-232/RS-422 electrical isolation), Ethernet/LAN, USB (for software
updates).
Data format: Compatible with NMEA 0183 v3.0 (GGA, GLL, GSA messages, etc.)
and SNMP v2.0 alarm protocol.
Optional accessories: External display unit (supports customized graphical
interface for DP operation), IALA beacon receiver.
Environmental adaptability: Operating temperature range -15°C to +55°C
(device body), GNSS antenna withstands -40°C to +85°C, meets IP30 protection
rating, suitable for harsh marine environments.
Redundancy design: Supports dual (DP Class 2) or triple redundancy (DP
Class 3) architecture to ensure seamless switching in case of critical component
failure and maintain continuous positioning capability.

Power supply: 110-240 V AC, 50-60 Hz, compatible with marine power
systems.
Features
Calibration Service: Built-in L-band receiver, integrated Fugro Seastar
SGG/G2 service, utilizes a dual-system reference station network to calculate
"orbit and clock" calibration, providing globally consistent sub-meter/decimeter
accuracy.
User Interface: Embedded keyboard and display, optional external display
unit, supports a customized graphical interface for DP operation, intuitively
displaying position, heading, sensor data, and diagnostic information.
Maintenance and Updates: Easy software updates via USB, supports regular
sensor calibration (recommended annually) and performance checks, ensuring
long-term reliability.
Compatibility: Compatible with Kongsberg K-Pos dynamic positioning systems
(such as DP-21, DP-31), and can work in conjunction with the C-Joy joystick
control system and K-Thrust thruster control system.

Application Scenarios
Ships Navigation: High-precision navigation for merchant ships, cargo
ships, fishing vessels, and yachts in complex waters (such as straits, ports,
and coastal waters) to ensure navigational safety.
Offshore Operations: Precise positioning of oil drilling platforms, FPSOs
(Floating Production Storage and Offloading) vessels, and exploration vessels;
precision operations for underwater pipeline laying, submarine cable repair, and
marine geological exploration.
Specialty Vessels: Precise maneuvering of research vessels, icebreakers,
rescue vessels, and ferries in narrow waterways or specific sea areas. Marine
Engineering: Offshore wind farm construction, tidal energy facility maintenance,
and support for wind turbine component installation and cable laying.
Special Environments: Areas with severe signal obstruction, such as densely
populated island areas and mountainous coastal regions, utilize a
multi-satellite system (GPS+GLONASS) to enhance signal coverage and
anti-interference capabilities.
Comparison and Advantages
Comparison with Traditional DGPS: Adding GLONASS expands satellite coverage
and improves system availability, especially in challenging signal environments
(such as high obstruction and multipath interference).
Superior to Regional SBAS: Seastar SGG/G2 service, based on the Fugro
dual-system network, provides globally consistent accuracy, superior to regional
SBAS services such as WAAS and EGNOS, and IALA DGPS local service.

Safety Certifications: Certified by DNV, Lloyd’s Register, ABS, and IMO DP
Class 2/3, meeting offshore operation safety standards and suitable for
mission-critical scenarios.
Installation and Maintenance
Installation Requirements: An assessment of the ship's structure and
electrical system is necessary to ensure that sensor installation locations (GPS
antenna, beacon, gyrocompass, etc.) avoid signal obstruction and interference;
power supply and communication cabling must comply with maritime safety
standards.
Maintenance Recommendations: Regularly calibrate sensors and check the
condition of antennas and connectors to ensure long-term stable system
operation; software updates are performed via USB interface, making operation
simple.
The DPS112, with its high precision, high reliability, and flexible
configuration, has become an ideal positioning solution for professional
vessels, offshore platforms, and marine engineering, especially excelling in
scenarios requiring high safety and continuous positioning capabilities.
