150Mb/s 4G LTE module certified for major networks
u-blox's TOBY-L200 4G LTE module has achieved 'network compatible' status for North Americas largest LTE networks. According to the manufacturer, the 150Mb/s TOBY-L200 is the world’s smallest Category 4 LTE module at24.8x35.6mm and operates over an automotive temperature range from -40 to +85°C.
Compact GNSS module supports all major navigation systems
Bringing concurrent multi-GNSS performance into the ultra-compact EVA footprint, u-blox's EVA-M8Mstand-alone positioning module is hailed as the world’s smallest commercially available GNSS module.Designed for cost- and space-sensitive applications, the integrated 7x7x1.1mm LGA module comprises all necessary components, including crystal and passives.
Study promises to improve European level crossing safety
Berner & Mattner Systemtechnik has brought the European Space Agency-funded study ‘SafeRail - Improving Safety at Railway Level Crossings’ to a successful conclusion. The results were officially presented on 9th October 2014 at the European Space Research and Technology Centre, Noordwijk, Netherlands, then thoroughly discussed at the European Level Crossing Forum, 13th November, Rome.
Sensor array facilitates highly accurate navigation
u-blox has introduced the NEO-M8L Automotive Dead Reckoning (ADR) module with integrated motion, direction and elevation sensors. The module integrates a gyroscope and an accelerometer with u‑blox’ leading GNSS platform M8, to achieve a high-performance indoor/outdoor positioning solution, available for all road vehicle and high-accuracy navigation applications.
Sensor-based module chosen for water leak detection task
Aquarius Spectrum has selected the Telit HE910 module for its innovative water leak detection system, which is based on fixed, always-on, correlating sensors. With more than 600 sensor installations in 3 cities in Israel (Jerusalem, Netanya, Karmiel), Aquarius Spectrum's system provides the water utilities with near-real-time alerts of suspected leaks, enabling proactive operations and maintenance (O&M).
450MHz voice/data module suits M2M applications
Suited to M2M applications, particularly Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) and smart power grid applications, the LISA-C210 CDMA450 1xRTT voice/data module has been introduced by u-blox. The module offers low power consumption, operating from just 20μA in power off mode, 5mA in sleep mode and 750mA in data traffic mode.
Co-op campaign to deliver V2X chipset for 2017
STMicroelectronics and Autotalks have announced that they will co-operate to deliver a mass market-optimised V2X chipset, for widespread deployment by 2017.V2X communications, comprised of Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) and Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I), are becoming more commonplace, and the U.S. Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has released an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM) on V2X.
Precision timing GNSS module targets cellular networks
A precision timing GNSS module that achieves high accuracy by disciplining a local oscillator or other clock source with timing signals received from satellite-hosted atomic clocks is available from Alpha Micro Components. The LEA-M8F module from u-blox is a compact, surface-mount unit which generates a precise 30.72 MHz reference clock crucial for synchronising industrial data and communication systems such as small, femto and macro-cell mobile ...
6-axis IMU is suitable for navigation & telematics
STMicroelectronics has announced what it claims to be the industry's smallest 6-axis IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) qualified for automotive applications with low-noise and improved output resolution. The ASM330LXH targets on-board units for electronic road tolling, other vehicle telematics systems and in-dash car-navigation solutions that require accurate and reliable inertial sensors to optimise positioning and direction, even in the absence o...
