RTCM
2.1 About RTCM
RTCM is stand for Radio Technical Commission for Maritime Services. RTCM data format that related to
GPS corrections is called RTCM SC-104 data format. It is a standard data format for differential
pseudorange corrections took hold fairly quickly and is currently in wide use. Users of Real-Time-
Kinematic (RTK) carrier phase positioning systems also have recognized the usefulness of such systems.
But because real-time carrier phase positioning systems were developed later than pseudorange
systems, carrier phase infrastructure systems are only now coming into widespread use. In addition,
various special committees set the standards for International maritime radio navigation and radio
communication especially in GPS application and Electronic Chart.

2.2 RTCM SC-104
RTCM SC-104 also known as RTCM Special Committee (SC) 104 is the one that concerned on GPS
correction signal. It is a compact binary data that is good for real time processing. It is also a
transmission of GPS correction from GPS reference station to GPS Rover. Mostly it is used for DGPS/RTK
surveys. There are several version of RTCM SC-104. The versions are:
RTCM-2.0 (Code correction ->DGPS)
RTCM-2.1 (Code + Phase correction -> RTK)
RTCM 2.2 ( …+ GLONASS )
RTCM 2.3 ( ….+ GPS Antenna Definition)
RTCM 3.0 (….+ Network RTK & GNSS)
The RTCM SC-104 has defined a tentative set of messages for carrier phase positioning systems in
(Version 2.1), and is now working on a revised version of these messages in RTCM SC-104
recommended standards Version 2.2. Two pairs of RTK messages are defined in the RTCM SC-104
standard, with the idea (but not the requirement) that each pair of messages would be used together.
The message types 18 and 19 contain raw carrier phase and pseudorange measurement information.
Message types 20 and 21 contain information based on the same measurements, but formatted as
corrections to the carrier phase and pseudorange measurements, in a manner similar to the RTCM Type
1 pseudorange correction message.

2.3 RTCM Data Structure
Each data record contains several message types for various contents.
Message 1, Message2…. Message N
Each message comprises header and body
Header: message type, time, length of message,
Body: data for every data type

2.5 RTCM Version 3.0
It is a new data structure developed for network RTK applications. It consist new signals which are L2C
and L5. Besides that, it is also one of the GNSS system data that has a compact data structure.
RTCM 2.0 – 0.5 kbit / sec. (DGPS)
RTCM 2.1-2.3 requires 5 kbit / sec (DGPS+RTK)
RTCM 3.0.requires 2 kbit / sec
The four groups of RTCM 3.0 GNSS RTK messages (RTCM 2004) are:

2.6 NovAtel RTK Rover Software
Figure 4
Basic assumptions:
Base station position is transmitted. Measurement quality similar to NovAtel narrow correlation receivers. Full wavelength L2 carrier phase. Any unclear points in the Version 2.1 RTCM standard will follow the clarification in RTCM SC-104
Version 2.2
Phase I (base and rover software):
RTCM SC-104 Version 2.1 type 20/21s used as a pair, with L1 pseudorange and carrier phase and L2 carrier phase, all transmitted at the same rate. This is the set of messages used by the German AdV system. Phase II(base and rover software): Phase I, plus
RTCM SC-104 Version 2.2 type 18/19s, used as a pair. L1- only or L1/L2 for type 18/19s Processing of the messages at the rover occurring as often as pseudoranges are transmitted. Base station co-ordinate accuracy extended with proposed new message type 22.
Phase III: Phase II, plus
The basic carrier phase positioning portion of the rover RTK system will run whenever a carrier phase message is received (without requiring an accompanying pseudorange message).
Phase I has been implemented at this point, and Phase II is in the final stages of implementation and test. Phase III will require some changes to the existing RTK positioning software, and will be implemented at a later point in time bases the estimated clock offset of the base station receiver, in seconds. It is defined here as the amount by which the local clock is ahead of GPS time. c is the speed of light in meters per second. λ is the appropriate wavelength for L1 or L2 in meters. φ is the carrier phase measurement in cycles, defined to have a sign which increases as the range to the satellite increases. A is an arbitrary constant integer number of cycles chosen at the start of tracking to keep the size of the correction small. ρ is the pseudorange measurement in meters. corrφ and corrρ are the corrections transmitted in the type 20 and 21 messages, respectively. The corrections can be applied directly to the measurements taken at the rover, rather than doing a difference between the base station and rover measurements.
