LTE-M vs Cat 1bis module

CNXSoft: This is a guest post by Dana Cohen, Product Marketing Manager at Sony Semiconductor Israel, discussing LTE-M in asset trackers and comparing it to LTE Cat1.bis, another LPWAN technology. Connectivity has been a game changer in the asset-tracking landscape. Personal devices, pets, vehicles, international packages, or any kind of asset can all easily be tracked through the cloud. This has opened the door to innovative use cases that have transformed global shipping, automotive loans, retail management, construction, and other industries. Using asset trackers allows shippers to track the temperature and condition of products and raw materials as they move on ships, planes, and trucks through the supply chain. Families have a better chance of recovering beloved pets that are lost. Even banks are more willing to approve high-risk car loans, knowing that they can locate and recover a vehicle if its owner falls behind on payments. While there is [...]

u blox X20 all band GNSS module

u-blox has recently launched the X20 all-band GNSS module with an integrated L-band receiver that supports all available GNSS satellite signals (L1/L2/L5/L6) and can provide centimeter-level accuracy globally. The module also includes PPP (Precise Point Positioning) correction on top of RTK (Real-time Kinematic) and features like end-to-end security functions, advanced jamming/spoofing detection, and other software features. These features make this device useful for industrial automation, automotive, UAVs, and ground robotics applications. Multi-band GNSS receivers using L1, L2, L5, and the new L6/E6 band frequencies enhance accuracy, reliability, security, and other benefits. That includes better PNT (Positioning, Navigation and Timing) and RTK performance, access to global precise point positioning (PPP) services like Galileo HAS, faster convergence times in PPP for industrial and automotive use, and access to regional PPP services like MADOCA-PPP. Additionally, it helps comply with regional regulations like AIS-140 for NavIC in India and improves jamming and spoofing immunity [...]
