Welcome to the first edition of “u” – the u‑blox technology magazine, a comprehensive collection of articles on the connected vehicle. We took a holistic approach in our research, considering that you want to get the big picture. To do so, we include an expert’s view of the connected vehicle, which offers a different perspective…
u-blox has released a firmware upgrade for its NEO-M8P that now supports China’s BeiDou GNSS system in addition to GPS and GLONASS. Capable of real-time kinematic (RTK) positioning, the new NEO-M8P firmware now offers eight-hertz RTK update rates for GPS. Customers that already have samples of NEO-M8P or the application board C94-M8P can access the…

The Internet has changed almost every aspect of our lives and now the time has come for the Internet of Things. It will connect more devices and impact our lives more than anything ever before. See what u-blox means when we say that we believe the focus should be on the “Internet of Things that…
By Justin Springham – Courtesy of http://www.mobileworldlive.com/ Operator Vodafone promises to roll out NB-IoT tech across “multiple markets” in 2017, a fillip for the low power wide area (LPWA) cellular technology that is facing strong competition from proprietary rivals such as Ingenu, LoRa and Sigfox. Vodafone’s commitment is significant as the NB-IoT standard is not yet fully ratified (expected…
u-blox, a global leader in wireless and positioning modules and chips, in collaboration with Neul has convinced its peers of the need for an extra power class for devices used in Narrowband-IoT (NB-IoT) applications. As a result, a maximum transmit power of 20 dBm has been approved on the occasion of the latest 3GPP RAN…
By Christoph Hammerschmidt – Courtesy of www.automotive-eetimes.com The SARA-U201 from u-blox is currently the smallest cellular module available supporting 2G and 3G. The device is pin and form factor compatible with u-blox’s other region-specific 2G and 3G variants, such as the 2G SARA-G350. Measuring just 16 x 26 x 3 mm, the 96-pin SARA-U201 provides 5-band…
In this webinar, u-blox highlights how to achieve centimeter‑level precise positioning by combining RTK technology and u‑blox GNSS expertise.
By Simon Glassman – Senior Principal, Strategic Partnerships Courtesy of www.radio-electronics.com IoT is fast becoming a reality, and requirements including narrow bandwidth, low power and reliable connectivity are all issues – hear how NB-IoT is addressing these problems. For the last couple of years, u-blox has cooperated with Vodafone and Huawei to develop and demo the new…
