Hello,

I hope this message finds you well.

I am currently in search of a GPS module suitable for integration into a smartwatch. Given the constraints of limited ground plane or PCB area, I am seeking a module that can effectively operate within these parameters.

Could you kindly provide recommendations on the best module suited for this particular application?

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Best Regards,

For other Quectel GNSS module without integrated antenna, it’s advised to customize antenna so that it can fit to your product aspect/shape.

If you want more information about GNSS products, please contact with Quectel sales or agents.

Thank you for your answers, Raphael.

Is there another option that doesn’t require a large ground plane? It won’t fit with a smartwatch.

Best Regards,
