CASE 03
GNSS Module Application for UAV Navigation System
How the TAU951M-P2 module was matched to the customer’s requirements and the results achieved in deployment.
Case Study
From Requirements to Results
A typical engagement flow: understand the application, match the module, support integration and validate in the field.
Customer Background
An industrial UAV manufacturer was developing a navigation system for inspection drones operating near structures and power lines, where multipath and interference are common. The flight controller required centimeter-level positioning with a 10 Hz update rate in a lightweight, low-power package.
Project Requirements
- Centimeter-level RTK accuracy for precise flight control
- 10 Hz update rate for dynamic maneuvering
- Compact and lightweight module for weight-critical design
- Robust performance against multipath and jamming near structures
Recommended Module
TAU951M-P2
RTK GNSS MODULE
Implementation
The TAU951M-P2 RTK module was recommended for its dual-band multi-constellation tracking, internal RTK engine and 10 Hz update rate in a 16.0 × 12.2 mm LCC package. Our team supported the customer with RTK configuration, NMEA/PPS integration questions and comparison evaluation against their incumbent solution.
Results
- Centimeter-level RTK positioning for reliable waypoint navigation
- Stable lock maintained near buildings and power infrastructure
- Compact single-module integration into the existing flight controller
- Successful flight validation and progression to pilot production
