Introducing the mosaic-G5: A Breakthrough in Compact GNSS Technology

Key Takeaways

• The mosaic-G5 range of GNSS modules enhances the existing mosaic family, known for exceptional positioning performance.
• New modules reduce size by 60% and power consumption by 40% compared to their predecessor, the mosaic-X5.
• Septentrio emphasizes its commitment to innovation in addressing diverse industrial applications, including UAVs and robotics.
• The mosaic-G5 series promises high-accuracy positioning for space-constrained environments without compromising performance.

Septentrio Expands Its Renowned Mosaic Family

Leuven, Belgium – January 16, 2025 – In an exciting development for the GNSS industry, Septentrio, a leader in high-precision positioning solutions, has unveiled the mosaic-G5 receiver range. This new collection expands the already established mosaic family of compact GNSS receiver modules, which have been lauded for their exceptional positioning capabilities and reliability. The focus of this expansion is to cater to emerging applications in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), robotics, and other sectors that require even more compact modules.

The mosaic-G5 modules bring substantial advancements, boasting an impressive 60% reduction in size and a 40% decrease in power consumption compared to the previous mosaic-X5 model. Septentrio claims this significant reduction in size, weight, and power (collectively referred to as SWaP) does not come at the expense of the high-performance standards that the company’s products are known for. This breakthrough opens up numerous possibilities for high-accuracy positioning across a wide array of devices that demand minimal size, weight, or power consumption, ranging from commercial UAVs and compact industrial robots to high-performance handheld devices and other professional-grade equipment.

“The rapidly evolving landscape of interconnected devices, robotics, and autonomous systems is driving the need for compact, low-power, and highly reliable positioning solutions, even in the most challenging environments,” stated Jan van Hees, Vice President of Business Development at Septentrio. “We are thrilled to introduce the mosaic-G5 receiver range, which underscores Septentrio’s dedication to continuous innovation and high-precision positioning in an ever-expanding selection of industrial and professional applications.”

Robust Performance with All-Band GNSS Technology

The mosaic-G5 series joins the well-received mosaic^TM portfolio, which is recognized for its all-band GNSS technology. Users can expect a long-standing reputation for accuracy, reliability, and resilience against GNSS jamming and spoofing**. The extensive module portfolio gives users the flexibility to choose the perfect product based on their specific system requirements. Enthusiasts can stay updated as the mosaic-G5 products are set to be released throughout the year.

For those seeking more information on the forthcoming mosaic-G5 receiver range or other Septentrio positioning technologies, the company encourages contact with its dedicated team.

* Global Navigation Satellite System includes the American GPS, European Galileo, Russian GLONASS, Chinese BeiDou, Japan’s QZSS, and India’s NavIC. These satellite constellations provide positioning data to receivers, enabling them to determine their precise location.

** Jamming refers to radio interference occurring when GPS frequencies are overwhelmed by competing radio waves, which can degrade accuracy or lead to the total loss of position. Spoofing involves malicious interference where deceptive signals are transmitted to the receiver, leading to incorrect positional data that diverts the target from its intended path.
