Rx Networks, Inc, the world leader in GNSS data services, today announced the availability of TruePoint.io precise location services on Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 and Snapdragon 888 5G Mobile Platforms. TruePoint.io integration empowers Android smartphones to achieve enhanced location accuracy down to a meter or less – something only previously seen with high grade receivers. 

Superior user experience for use cases like Rideshare, Micro-mobility, Health and Fitness and lane-level requirement applications can now be realized with enhanced location accuracy. The enablement of reliable meter-level location accuracy on mobile phones will unlock the potential of Location Based Services and open the door for other innovative and unique use cases.  The limitations of a standalone GNSS chipset no longer become the barrier to pursuing the vision of connected ecosystems reliant on location. 

TruePoint.io enables scalable, reliable, and an affordable way to leverage high precision location on smartphones powered by Snapdragon mobile platforms.  Rx Networks global coverage, including China, gives Smartphone OEM’s the advantage of a single GNSS corrections vendor that works across all continents.

“Over the past decade Rx Networks delivered reliable assistance data to billions of devices globally with 99.999% SLA.  By Leveraging our proven data delivery expertise and infrastructure, TruePoint.io is well positioned to lead the enablement of precise positioning to the mass market,” said John Carley, VP of Sales and Marketing at Rx Networks. 

“Rx Networks provision of GNSS data services for accurately positioning smartphones using Snapdragon mobile platforms will enable meter-level location accuracy almost everywhere smartphones can connect to a terrestrial cellular network,” said Francesco Grilli, Vice President, Product Management at Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. “Meter-level location accuracy is poised to improve smartphone user experiences and spur the creation of exciting and innovative services for businesses and consumers.”

TruePoint.io is scheduled to be available on Snapdragon mobile platforms initially in China in Q4 2022 and globally in H1 2023.

TruePoint.io serves Global PPP corrections for GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou GNSS constellations. Mass-market multi-constellation GNSS chipsets can now augment all their satellite measurements with accuracy and fully leverage their positioning capabilities with quad-constellation support. Consumer devices now have the potential to achieve 50 cm position accuracy when using Rx Networks services for any of the GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou constellations. Other IoT and infrastructure applications that do not require real-time positioning can realize 10 cm accuracy in a variety of environments. Multi-constellation correction capability ushers in new possibilities and use cases for the connected receiver. TruePoint.io remains ubiquitous and as flexible as possible to GNSS chipsets using industry standard formats, and is also receptive to custom integration services for unique usage scenarios. By offering PPP and other high accuracy services in a variety of data standards, TruePoint.io empowers telecom providers with a straightforward approach to integrating high accuracy services that provide more value to their client devices, and propels the development of exciting new use cases.

Vincent Chen, Product Manager of Truepoint.io says “With this new expansion of TruePoint.io, applications already serviced by Rx Networks can accelerate their market growth objectives with better accuracy and precision using constellations ideal for target regions. Being able to deliver Global PPP corrections for GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou also sets the stage for the addition of more constellations like QZSS. Stay tuned!”

Well over two billion devices use their GNSS assistance data each and every day.

Precise satellite orbit and clock corrections will be available via Rx Networks’ innovative High Accuracy Assistance Service (HAAS) platform, which supports mobile devices with either multi-band or single-band PPP-enabled receivers.  HAASprovides corrections for GPS and GLONASS (with additional constellations to be added in 2018), along with precise regional Ionospheric and Tropospheric data. High availability is assured with geographically redundant secure NTRIP casters.

“Our real-time precise data corrections enable dual-frequency receivers to achieve centimeter accuracy globally, for Precise Point Positioning (PPP),” said Vincent Chen, Product Manager at Rx Networks.  “Early HAAS testing with a standard Android smartphone running as a single-band receiver and standard smartphone antenna shows sub meter accuracy using HAAS orbits and clocks.  These results are exciting because they confirm the HAAS addition to location.io will provide an affordable alternative solution to traditional RTK positioning, bringing high accuracy to a whole new set of markets”.
