Introduction

 

 

 

L30, a GPS  receiver  module, which  is  based on  the  lastest SIRF-starIV ROM  version 2.2, features  extremely compact  profile of 9.0x9.0x1.6mm and low current consumption of only 31 mA during tracking. Highest sensitivity down to -163dBm  for tracking satellites  along with lowest Time-To-First-Fix fulfill the toughest requirements.

 

L30 supports aided-GPS function without  the necessity of downloading data  from server  since it  automatically captures  ephemeris data from  satellites  locally and  predicts  ephemeris  over  3  days  without server assistance.

 

With embedded  active jammer  remover,  L30 can  track and remove up to  8 CW (Carrier  Wave) type signals  up to 80dB-HZ signal level.

 

This feature ensures  fast and accurate navigation  in hostile signal or high noise environment.

 

Its high  sensitivity, lower  power consumption  and 48-PRN channels make L30  the best choice  for portable device such as  vehicle tracking,  personal tracking,  asset tracking, connected  PND and  security device.
