Trimble IonoGuard™
Mitigate the negative impact of solar activity on precise positioning utilizing the Trimble ProPoint® GNSS positioning engine
Protecting RTK GNSS from ionospheric disturbances
Solar activity peaks every 11 years with the next maximum predicted in 2025. This has a direct impact on delays and stability of GNSS signals and can have a negative impact on precision positioning.
With the potential for large solar storms to cause disruptions in mid-latitude operations, ionospheric protection has become a critical global requirement for GNSS receivers. Trimble IonoGuardTM is being used in the field today to optimize accuracy, availability and integrity in critical applications.

Included in the Trimble IonoGuardTM publication:
- How sun cycles and ionospheric activity can result in scintillation, measurement noise, position noise and significant operation disruptions
- How Trimble's extensive R&D data collection exercise spanning three solar cycles was leveraged to develop the next-generation technology
- How Trimble IonoGuard improves phase tracking algorithms and adjusts signal processing to minimize tracking error
- How the new traffic light system improves customer diagnostics
"All ionospheric data is logged in the standard Trimble T04 raw data files which can help Trimble support teams further diagnose issues."
