GN02 & GN03 Series: Aimed at providing standard precision with dual-frequency capabilities, these modules strike a perfect balance between performance and cost. They are suited for applications requiring sub-meter accuracy, enhancing reliability in tracking and monitoring tasks.


GN05 & GN06 Series: Focusing on single-frequency standard precision, these modules are the epitome of efficiency, offering a low-power solution without compromising performance. They cater to the growing demands of the e-bike market and IoT applications, where extended battery life and consistent performance are paramount.


GN07, GN08 & GN10 Series: These are the high-precision champions of the Neoway family, with the GN10 module standing out for its RTK system compatibility, delivering centimeter-level accuracy. Such precision is indispensable for applications in surveying, precision agriculture, and the burgeoning field of autonomous vehicles, where exact positioning is critical.


GN09-A1 precise positioning even without a GNSS signal

The GN09-A1 module, with its built-in IMU, deserves special mention.


Incorporating an IMU in the Neoway GN09-A1 significantly improves positioning accuracy with a poor GNSS signal

Incorporating an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) into the GN09-A1 module significantly improves positioning accuracy in scenarios where GPS signals are unavailable, such as in tunnels or densely built-up areas. The GN09-A1 module features a built-in 6D IMU that supports a 3-axis accelerometer and a 3-axis gyroscope. This setup is crucial for dead reckoning and inertial navigation, which are methods used to estimate the position, orientation, and velocity of a moving object without the need for external references.


When the GNSS signal is lost, the IMU takes over by providing continuous data on the movement of the device based on the last known GPS position. The accelerometer measures acceleration in all three dimensions, which, when integrated over time, gives velocity changes. The gyroscope, on the other hand, measures the rate of rotation, which helps in understanding the direction in which the device is moving or facing. By combining these data points, the GN09-A1 can estimate the device's current position and trajectory during the GNSS outage.


This process, known as sensor fusion, combines data from multiple sources (in this case, the GNSS and IMU) to improve system performance, in terms of accuracy and reliability. The GN09-A1 module's ability to support other sensor inputs for multi-source fusion further enhances this capability. The dual modes of ADR (Automotive Dead Reckoning) and UDR (Untethered Dead Reckoning) allow for free switching between modes depending on the application's needs, ensuring optimal positioning accuracy even in challenging environments where GNSS signals are compromised.


By leveraging the IMU's capabilities in conjunction with GNSS data, the GN09-A1 module ensures that applications requiring precise location information, such as vehicle navigation, asset tracking, and wearable technology, maintain high accuracy and reliability even in the most challenging conditions.
