Ground Plane
It is recommended to include a 30 mm by 30 mm (square) ground plane around the
module in the PCB design as shown below in order to optimize antenna performance.
The ground plane should be on the top layer of the PCB (directly under the module) with
the module centered on it.
Please refer to Section 10.2 GNSS Antenna (included in the module) for details.

Note:
The ground plane should be continuous. There is no “keepout”
area under the module.
