TE command is used to query the rate at which the navigation solution and measurement solutions are updated PDOPLIMIT This command sets the maximum position dilution of precision PDOP allowed for a valid navigation solution For example PDOPLIMIT 10 sets the PDOP limit to 10 If the satellites available for navigation have a geometry that results in a PDOP value that exceeds this limit the receiver will report that a navigation solution is not available The default setting for PDOPLIMIT is 10 When the PDOP reaches higher values large errors can occur in the navigation solution If the PDOP limit is set too low availability of the navigation solution may decrease NavCom s specifications are valid for a PDOP of x 4 0 The quality of GNSS data is dependent on the geometry between the receiver and satellites this includes the number of satellites that can be seen by the receiver and the angle between the receiver and satellites as a constellation seen by the receiver A satellite near the horizon usually provides a lower quality signal because of greater atmospheric interference and the increased likelihood of the signal reflecting from surface features this is known as multipath error The effect of geometry on GNSS quality is measured by PDOP position dilution of precision PDOP is the overall measure of the precision obtainable with a given satellite geometry For example a PDOP of 4 or less yields excellent precision a
