Telit releases NavIC-enabled GNSS module
Telit has introduced a new positioning module aimed at India. The SL869T3-I combines GPS with India’s NavIC (IRNSS) navigation system and the country’s satellite-based augmentation system (SBAS), known as GAGAN.
The SL869T3-I module enables the creation of high-performance position reporting and navigation solutions. It complies with Automotive Industry Standard 140 (AIS-140) — an Indian government mandate that requires the use of NavIC for vehicle location tracking devices in all public transportation vehicles, effective April 2019.
The SL869T3-I is a 16 x 12.2-millimeter module with an LLC package. It is provided with a single RF input for L1 and L5 bands. It also contains Flash memory, a low noise amplifier (LNA) and SAW filters. The RF front end is specifically designed to comply with sensitivity specifications contained in AIS-140 standard.
“The new SL869T3-I is among the first IoT GNSS positioning receiver modules to deliver IRNSS/NavIC L5 coverage compliant with the Indian government’s AIS-140 regulation,” said Manish Watwani, EVP global product management, Telit. “This new addition to the Telit family of products results from more than 20 years’ experience in GNSS applications.”
