u-blox, a global provider of positioning and wireless communication technologies and services, has announced the first support for Galileo OSNMA (Open Service Navigation Message Authentication) in the firmware update of its ZED-F9P high-precision GNSS module. This enhancement advances the spoofing detection and jamming detection capabilities of the well-established multi-band GNSS module. It ensures robust and reliable performance for various applications such as robotic lawnmowers, unmanned aerial vehicles and surveying and mapping.
The ZED-F9P-05B is the first u-blox product to adopt OSNMA, a cryptographically strong solution to spoofing, setting a new standard in the industry for GNSS security and reliability.
The update helps ensure the exceptional performance of the ZED-F9P-05B. Features include enhanced spoofing and jamming detection to guarantee end-product robustness against tampering and malicious attacks, as well as improved Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) convergence to reduce the risk of incorrect readings important to surveying-related applications.
The addition of the SPARTN Beidou satellite constellation support also enhances the capabilities of the GNSS receivers and boosts the performance of the u-blox PointPerfect GNSS correction service in some regions. As the receivers feature an advanced ionospheric model, they deliver a more robust performance during periods of elevated ionospheric activities.
