Overview
EasyGPS is a GPS prototype board for Ublox LEA5S GPS module. It comes with Active GPS Antenna.
A-GPS support, -160 dBm high-sensitive and an innovative jamming-resistant RF architecture.
Board supports passive and active antennas. Ready-to-use examples are provided with the board.
Description
The LEA-5S module is powered by a high-performance 50-channel u-blox 5 technology. A 32-channel acquisition engine with over 1 million effective correlators is capable of massive parallel searches. This enables a Time To First Fix (TTFF) of less than 1 second, while long correlation/dwell times make an acquisition and tracking sensitivity of -160dBm possible. The SuperSense® KickStartfunction enables accelerated acquisition of weak signals. Once acquired, satellites are passed on to a power-optimized dedicated tracking engine. This arrangement allows the GPS engine to simultaneously track up to 16 satellites while searching for new ones. U-blox 5’s advanced jamming suppression mechanism and innovative RF architecture provide a high-level of immunity to jamming, thus ensuring maximum GPS performance.
