Next-Gen Navigation: How GNSS Software Receiver Silicon-Proven IP Cores Enable Always-On, Low-Power Positioning
Location data has greatly become the spine of any construction, such as logistics and transport, personal services, to the Internet of Things (IoT), as we now live in a hyper-connected world. Precise and dependable positioning is not a luxury anymore but a need. Historically, Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receivers were and continue to be driven by traditional hardware-based navigation solutions, yet navigation systems based on GNSS continue to be limited by modern need demands, such as low power, scalability, and flexibility. Here, GNSS software receiver silicon-proven IP cores of T2M-SEMI are reinventing the future of navigation. The Evolution of GNSS Technology GPS (Global Positioning System) and SBAS (Satellite-Based Augmentation Systems), or Global Navigation Satellite Systems in general, have been the focus of the navigation technologies in recent decades. Some of the first applications relied heavily on as-yet dedicated hardware receivers to accomplish the ba...
