FLiteTraX ULTRA GPS 5G & BLE Tag 2.6g

FLiteTraX ULTRA is tiny solar powered GPS avian tag that uses a cellular 5G network and long range Bluetooth (INTELINK) to transmit data directly to a mobile phone or to a Bluetooth gateway. Data is uploaded to the cloud server and is accessible to the user through a web page link

DATA UPLOAD over 5G Network

 ULTRA 5G supports both NB-IoT and LTE-M (or called eMTC) frequency bands. We will activate selected bands for devices to be used in different regions.

DATA UPLOAD via BLE Intelink

Transmission method: INTELINK based on Bluetooth 5.0

Maximum uplink/downlink speed: 1 Mbps/1 Mbps

Output power: 8 dBm

Transmission distance: 80~120m with ordinary smart phone; up to 1200m with Debut series gateway products.

DATA TYPES

• GPS: longitude, latitude, altitude, geoid height, course, GPS satellite quantity
• ENV: light intensity, temperature, inner air pressure, voltage
• BHV: ODBA (overall dynamic body acceleration)
• ACC: x/y/z acceleration data at 25 Hz (by default)

DATA COLLECTION MODES 

User can choose from the following data collection modes, and specify the related parameters to suit the condition and objective of the study. 

Regular Mode

• GPS interval: 5 min ~1 day
• ENV interval: 5 min ~1 day
• ODBA interval: 10 min/30 min
• ACC interval: 25 Hz, 3 seconds in every 10 min (by default)
• Above ranges can be set on webpage/App. If other settings are required, please contact us. 

Sleep Mode

This mode is to save power by deactivating certain type of data collection for:

• a certain period (from minutes to months)
• a regular period each day (a maximum of 16 hours)

Raw Acceleration Data Collecting

Raw x/y/z acceleration data could be very useful for behavioral research, especially whenthe data can be combined with timestamps, GPS, environmental data, and the bird’s activityrhythm. However, the raw data can seldom be obtained due to its large size.

With INTELINK, the user can not only download the raw data from memory, but also obtainreal-time raw acceleration data by connecting a mobile phone to ULTRA.

INTELLIGENT FREQUENCY OPTIMIZATION (BOOST) 

The BOOST function intelligently increases the frequency for data collection when certain conditions are met (good charging, fast movement, etc.). 

The default setting is as below: 

• Frequency Optimization: GPS at every 10 minutes
• Flight Detection: GPS at every 5 minutes

With BOOST, the device portrays detailed movement tracks and attempts more frequent data transmission without manual intervention, keeping long-term energy balance and avoiding the possibility of battery drain caused by radical settings during bad weather.
