GNSS Module: Pushing the boundaries for accurate positioning in the new millennium

GNSS modules are enabling the development of accurate positioning applications. GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) modules are used to receive signals from satellite constellations in orbit around the earth and convert those signals into timed positions. They supply location, motion, and timing information in each of these applications. Compared to a typical GPS receiver, the GNSS module supports more bands and frequencies, the signal robustness in demanding situations is improved, and it can accomplish positioning (relative to carrier) at a decimeter or centimeter level under global RTK/PPP correction sources. Their small size and low power requirements make them ideal for embedded applications where space is limited, and reliability is paramount, such as autonomous vehicles, cars, robots, drones, IoT devices, surveying equipment, marine navigational systems, agricultural machines, and telecommunications infrastructure. The automation, information-based decision-making, and r...

GPS receivers: High-accuracy solutions for precision navigation and positioning

With the trend to automation, real-time tracking and intelligent navigation systems in more and more industries, GNSS modules are the key enabler for the development of high-precision positioning applications. GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) modules are small and high-performance receivers that convert signals from satellite constellations into positional and time data for in vehicle systems. They provide location, motion, and timing data in all of these applications. In contrast to the regular GPS receiver, the GNSS module provides multiband and multifrequency support, better signal robustness under challenging environments, and can achieve a decimeter- or centimetre-level position relative to carrier (RTK) or precise point positioning (PPP) correction sources globally. Their small footprint and low power consumption are well-suited for use in embedded applications where compactness and reliability are critical, including autonomous vehicles (cars, robots, drones), IoT sys...
