2.2 Description
The highly integrated single board GPS receiver module is optimized specifically for automotive
applications. The GPS receiver tracks the
constellation of satellites. The satellite
signals received by an active antenna are tracked with 12 parallel channels of L1, C/A code then
downconverted to an IF frequency and digitally processed to obtain a full navigation solution of
position, velocity, time and heading. The solution is then sent over the serial link via the 10-pin
connector.
