How is Locata different from GPS?

• A LocataNet is a “Local Constellation”:
  • Covers only the area that needs coverage;
  • Additional LocataLites can be added where additional coverage strength
    (eg, for network redundancy, reliability, integrity, etc) is required; and
  • The constellation is designed for specific local needs, creating a “GPS hotspot”.
• Locata utilises freely available spectrum in the 2.4 GHz ISM band, complying with
  Part 15B FCC regulations for transmitters in that frequency band.
• Received signals are much stronger from local LocataLites:
  • Typical Locata receiver signal strengths range from -60 dBm to -105 dBm (Strongest GPS open-sky signals are only -125 dBm);
  • Locata signal margin can be used for multipath mitigation; and
  • No need for longer integration periods to receive weak signals.
