u-blox NEO-F10N dual-band GNSS module

u-blox has launched the NEO-F10N, its latest positioning module. This module is based on the u-blox NEO form factor and is equipped with F10 dual-band GNSS technology. It supports L1/L5 GNSS bands from multiple constellations (including NavIC) to provide solid metre-level position accuracy in urban areas. Its firmware is upgradeable and configurable to support a range of use cases, such as the vehicle aftermarket telematics and micromobility markets or industrial applications requiring metre-level position accuracy.

Leveraging signals from both the L1 and L5 bands, this module achieves better accuracy than using the L1 band alone. While receivers equipped with L1 band support can determine the road a vehicle travels on, those incorporating both L1 and L5 bands can even discern the specific side of the road. The module is designed to enhance accuracy, reduce power consumption and offer an alternative solution to customers who do not want to deploy DR (dead reckoning) set-ups.

u-blox has also introduced the ANN-MB5 L1/L5 antenna together with the u-blox NEO-F10N to strengthen its F10 dual-band solution. This tailored antenna offers customers an easy option for metre-level applications that require multi-band and multi-constellation support.
