Quectel LG580P multi-constellation, multi-band GNSS module

Quectel Wireless Solutions has launched the LG580P — a multi-constellation, multi-band GNSS module designed for high-precision positioning. The device supports multi-band signals across L1, L2, L5 and L6, enabling real-time kinematic (RTK) positioning and integrating a dual antenna heading algorithm for enhanced accuracy. As designers and developers seek to build devices that combine high-precision positioning with low power consumption, the module is suitable for applications such as intelligent robots and devices utilised in precision agriculture, ADAS and autonomous driving.

The device features built-in professional-grade interference detection and elimination algorithms that mitigate multiple types of narrowband interference. This should improve signal reception, especially in complex electromagnetic environments. It also supports anti-jamming with a built-in professional-grade NIC anti-jamming unit and supplies integrity detection information which aids control decisions in automatic navigation scenarios.

The product is highly versatile, supporting numerous satellite bands and constellations. It offers GNSS support for 1040 tracking channels, enabling concurrent reception of GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BDS, QZSS and NavIC constellations. In addition, the product supports multiple SBAS systems, including WASS, EGNOS, BDSBAS, MSAS, GAGAN and SDCM.

The ultra-compact module measures just 21 x 16 x 2.6 mm and operates in the -40 to +85°C temperature range, widening its applicability further. It is RoHS compliant and features interfaces including UART, SPI, I2C and CAN. It also supports Precise Point Positioning (PPP), leveraging Galileo High Accuracy Service (HAS) on the E6 signal and BDS B2b, enabling high position accuracy without the need for additional correction networks.
