How to achieve low power consumption for efficient GNSS tracking

GNSS tracking devices must typically be small, cost-effective, easily integrated into the main device – and, crucially, with minimal demands on power supply. GNSS tracking devices which fail to optimize power consumption risk undermining the operational and commercial viability of the end product – not only by increasing energy spend, but also by requiring more maintenance to change batteries or address heat-related wear. Many GNSS tracking devices are required to remain operational over long periods, often in remote or hard-to-reach locations and at considerable unit volumes, making physical intervention post-deployment impractical.
