Description
This is a GNSS HAT for the Raspberry Pi based on the u-blox NEO-M8T with multi-constellation receiver support as well as a precise single-satellite timing feature.
The HAT supports concurrent reception of up to 3 GNSS (GPS, Beidou, Galileo, GLONASS) and augmented systems like SBAS, QZSS, IMES and D-GPS. It features accurate & fast positioning with minor drifting, low power consumption, outstanding ability for anti-spoofing & anti-jamming!
Online development resources and manual available
Features
- Precise timing feature - high availability even with one single satellite
- High dynamic range radios with both analog and digital interference mitigation, supporting applications in wireless communications equipment
- Multi-constellation receiver support, concurrent reception of up to 3 types of GNSS satellite systems from GPS, Beidou, Galileo, and GLONASS yet still retains low power consumption
- Augment systems support, including SBAS, QZSS, IMES, D-GPS, improving the positioning performance of service location
- A-GNSS (Assisted GNSS) support, reducing the first positioning time when powered up, improving the acquisition sensitivity
