The Cobalt GNSS Receiver is a state-of-the-art ultra-low-power GNSS receiver that significantly enhances IoT system-on-chip designs. It provides a compact yet powerful solution for integrating navigation capabilities into mobile and compact IoT devices. By sharing resources between GNSS and other modem functions, Cobalt offers cost and size efficiency to extend the market potential of products.
Cobalt excels in mass-market applications, particularly those constrained by size and cost, such as logistics, agriculture, and animal tracking. It employs a software-defined approach, making it versatile across different satellite constellations including Galileo and GPS, and is designed to be supported with cloud assistance for enhanced positioning accuracy and energy optimization.
Developed in collaboration with CEVA DSP and supported by the European Space Agency, this GNSS receiver delivers improved resistance to multi-path interference and an increased modulation rate for optimal accuracy. The inclusion of integrated resources ensures a seamless continuation of GNSS-enabled services, reducing power demands in comparison to conventional receivers.
