Dual-band GNSS module

26 June 2019 Telecoms, Datacoms, Wireless, IoT

The Quectel LC79D is a compact dual-band GNSS module with support for L1 and L5 bands for satellites to improve positioning accuracy.

Featuring concurrent multi-constellation GNSS receivers on dual GNSS bands, the device can work on L1 and L5 bands for GPS, Galileo and QZSS satellites, L1 band for GLONASS and BeiDou satellites as well as L5 band for IRNSS satellite. Compared with GNSS modules working on L1 band only, the LC79D can generally increase the number of visible satellites to improve positioning accuracy when driving in urban canyons.

Featuring an embedded LNA (low-noise amplifier) and multi-tone active interference, the module boasts high sensitivity and reliable anti-jamming capability, ensuring enhanced acquisition and tracking performance even in weak signal areas. Multiple communication interfaces including UART and SPI, small dimensions of 10,1 x 9,7 x 2,4 mm, and low power consumption make the LC79D appealing for vehicle, people and asset tracking as well as sharing economy applications.
