GEM1205 compact GNSS module with antenna
GEM1205 Compact GNSS Module with Integrated Antenna
The GEM1205 is a high-performance, dual-band (L1/L5) GNSS positioning module powered by a next-generation navigation SoC. It delivers comprehensive tracking capabilities by simultaneously supporting all visible global civil satellite constellations, including GPS, NavIC, BDS, GLONASS, Galileo, and QZSS. The embedded high-efficiency dual-feed patch antenna enables the module to process L1 and L5 tracking loops concurrently. This maximizes satellite visibility and optimizes signal-to-noise dynamics, allowing the module to achieve centimeter-level positioning accuracy and an ultra-short TTFF (Time-To-First-Fix)—even within highly dense, degraded urban environments.
Engineered for professional industrial integration, the GEM1205 supports an external active antenna interface featuring autonomous auto-detecting and hardware auto-switching logic. Boasting a highly compact, surface-mount form factor and superior power efficiency, it is widely implemented in asset tracking, automotive logistics, telemetry, and advanced consumer tracking systems.
