Quectel Announces Dual-band High-precision Positioning Module Based on Broadcom BCM47755 GNSS Chip
SHANGHAI, Oct. 29, 2019 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

Quectel Wireless Solutions Co., Ltd., the leading global supplier of cellular 
and GNSS modules, announced today that Quectel LC79D has entered into mass 
production and is now available for purchase. The LC79D is an L1/L5 high 
precision GNSS module that offers a cost and performance level vastly superior 
to L1 GNSS solutions on the market today.

Based on Broadcom's BCM47755, the solution offers simultaneous support for L1 
and L5 bands for GPS, Galileo and QZSS satellites, L1 band for GLONASS and 
BeiDou satellites as well as L5 band for IRNSS. The multi-GNSS support, along 
with integrated LNA and SAW, allows the LC79D to reach accuracies near 1m and 
has vastly superior performance in deep urban canyons. The combination of 
industry leading performance, stand alone operation, low power and cost makes 
it an ideal solution for anyone requiring a higher performing GNSS solution.

"Broadcom is excited to partner with Quectel on their LC79D," said Prasan Pai, 
product marketing director for the Wireless Communications and Connectivity 
Division at Broadcom. "By utilizing Broadcom's BCM47755 Dual-Frequency GNSS 
receiver chip, the LC79D from Quectel is uniquely positioned to be one of the 
leading solution for High Precision and IoT markets who can benefit from 
increased accuracy, low power consumption and increased performance in deep 
urban canyons."

"The LC79D offers vastly superior performance and cost than other solutions on 
the market today," stated Mark Murray, Vice President Sales, GNSS at Quectel. 
"Near 1m accuracy, along with low power and cost, makes it a perfect solution 
for the IoT, tracking, precision agriculture, drone and anyone requiring high 
precision. In Host Mode, the LC79D can also support dead reckoning focused at 
the eBike, robotics and autonomous vehicle markets."

The LC79D comes in an ultra-compact 10.1mm x 9.7mm package. Samples and 
Development kits are available now.
