FAQ Answer

Question

What causes GPS signal delay in tractor field boundary tracking?

Answer
Signal delay in tractor boundary tracking typically comes from processing latency inside the GPS controller, not from the satellite itself. The controller takes time to calculate position from raw satellite data, and this delay creates an offset between the tractor's real location and its reported location.
