Xplore Technologies XGPS

The Xplore xGPS module is an external device that attaches to all iX104 tablets. With this module users can access GPS (Global Position System) information from satellites that orbit the earth in order to determine location. The xGPS provides excellent navigational performance under dynamic conditions in areas with limited sky view, high sensitivity for weak signal operation without compromising accuracy, and support of DGPS (Differential Global Positioning System) and multiple SBAS (Satellite-Based Augmentation Systems) systems like WAAS (Wide Area Augmentation System) and EGNOS (Euro Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service). The SBAS provide corrections for the GPS constellation signals that allow a user to achieve highly improved accuracy. This module is also equipped with FixNOW and Continuous Tracking Mode functionality. These modes optimize power consumption within the GPS module.
