Product description
The XPLR-HPG-2 explorer kit provides a compact platform for the evaluation and prototyping of the
ublox solution for high-precision GNSS. Comprising integrated GNSS, cellular, and short-range radio
modules, the platform accesses correction data from satellite broadcasts using an L-band satellite
GNSS receiver or through IP connectivity using Wi-Fi or LTE. The correction data, which compensates
for satellite and atmospheric errors, is provided by the u-blox PointPerfect GNSS augmentation
service and delivered through the Thingstream IoT service delivery platform. The platform topology
and data communication between each of the component systems is shown in

Module integration
XPLR-HPG-2 integrates the following positioning, cellular, and short-range radio modules:
•
ZED-F9R high precision dead reckoning module
: Global navigation satellite system (GNSS) for
high-precision GNSS positioning in challenging environments, including:
o
Multi-band GNSS receiver delivers centimeter-level accuracy
o
Native support for PointPerfect GNSS augmentation service
•
NEO-D9S correction data L-band receiver module
: Processes the correction data necessary for
correcting satellite and atmospheric errors. The module processes external corrections to
compensate for various imperfections called GNSS errors, with:
o
Access to centimeter-level GNSS corrections globally
o
Freedom to select GNSS correction data delivery channel
o
Allows selection of desired L-band GNSS correction service
•
LARA-R6 single or multi-mode LTE Cat 1 cellular module
: Modem for Internet of Things (IoT)
and Machine to Machine (M2M) applications, including:
o
Secure Cloud
o
Universal connectivity and reliable performance in smallest form factor
o
Reduced logistics complexity, with three regional product variants and extensive certifications
from the mobile network operator (MNO)
o
Any region, any band, any technology for simple roaming anywhere in the world
o
World's smallest LTE Cat 1 module - used for cellular applications - with global coverage, ideal
for size-constrained devices (LTE CAT-1 = medium speed wireless communication standard
specifically designed for Internet of Things (IoT) and Machine to Machine (M2M) use cases).
o
Receive-diversity for reliable performance in difficult conditions
o
Secure by design to always keep your device running and updated
•
NINA-W106 stand-alone multiradio module
, including:
