GPS and Wireless Technology overview

At the core of our philosophy is our passion to deliver high-performance, small-profile, low power, and cost-effective embedded GPS receiver solutions to our OEM customers. Whether for professional applications such as fleet management or asset tracking, vehicle services such as eCall, anti-theft systems and road pricing, or consumer geotagging for cameras, u-blox has the right technology to deliver the sensitivity, connectivity, noise immunity, low-power and compact size required by today’s and tomorrow’s demanding applications.

Anti Jamming
Through advanced jamming suppression mechanisms and innovative RF architecture, u-blox GPS receivers may be embedded in close proximity to RF noise sources: in mobile computers, mobile phones, PNDs, and automotive dashboards.

Assisted GPS
u-blox’ free assisted GPS (A-GPS) online or offline service enables u-blox’ GPS receivers to compute a position within seconds, even under very poor signal conditions.

Capture & Process:
u-blox’ patented software technology has resulted in extremely low-power, point-and-shoot geotagging products for portable consumer devices such as cameras. The solution facilitates sorting, finding, and sharing of media such as photos and videos based on the location where it was captured.

Dead Reckoning:
When GPS signals are blocked (e.g. in tunnels or indoor car parks) u-blox’ Dead Reckoning (DR) technology allows uninterrupted vehicle navigation based on heading and distance data provided by external sensors.

KickStart:  
u-blox’ proprietary KickStart technology delivers the world’s fastest acquisition of GPS satellite signals even in difficult environments such as indoor locations and deep urban canyons.

SuperSense®:
u-blox’ SuperSense® technology has become the world’s de-facto standard for unbeatable GPS tracking performance. Combining high-sensitivity with low-power consumption, SuperSense® delivers a seamless GPS tracking experience in challenging environments where GPS signals are extremely weak.

Timing:
u-blox’ GPS clock synchronization technology allows globally distributed computer and telecom systems to synchronize their clocks accurately, continuously and cost-effectively.

u-blox 6:
u-blox 6 is the next generation GPS platform from u-blox featuring extremely low power performance for both real-time and non-realtime GPS applications and increased sensitivity while maintaining the fastest acquisition time on the market.

Wireless + GPS:
By offering embedded semiconductors, software, services and reference designs that support combined wireless and GPS applications, u-blox delivers complete solutions for a wide new range of location based services that capitalize on the converged technologies.
