The FALCOM GPS-USB-Stick

is a plug-and-track GPS device based on the latest GPS technology from u-blox. Powered by the high performance 50 channel ublox 5 technology, this smart antenna provides excellent performance at an economical price. A 50 channel engine with over 1 million effective correlators is capable of massive parallel searches across the time/frequency space. This enables a Time To First Fix (TTFF) of less than 1 second while long correlation/dwell times make possible the best-in-class acquisition and tracking sensitivity.

The GPS-Stick supports the u-blox AssistNow Online and AssistNow Offline-GPS services.

The USB-GPS-Stick comes with SuperSense, providing ultra-fast acquisition/reacquisition and exceptional tracking sensitivity. SuperSense enables best-in-class tracking and navigation in difficult signal environments such as urban canyons or indoor locations. 

u-blox 5 technology has been developed with GALILEO in mind. When GALILEO-L1 signals become available, the Stick will be capable of receiving these signals. The necessary software to process the signal will be included in the ROM of future smart antenna version. For more information please refer to the datasheetof the UBX-G5010 under www.ublox.com.
