Description
Industrial High-Precision GPS Mini-PCIe Card for Centimeter-Level Accuracy
Available. Price on request; not available for online purchase.
The Gateworks GW16143 is a rugged, industrial-grade high-precision GPS Mini-PCIe card designed to provide precise positioning for applications using Gateworks single board computers. Designed for autonomous systems, robotics, drones and outdoor asset tracking, it delivers centimeter-level RTK positioning with integrated multi-band Real Time Kinematics (RTK).
The GW16143 seamlessly integrates with Gateworks SBCs to enable high-accuracy GNSS for edge applications in even the most challenging environments. It supports concurrent reception of GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou, with base and rover RTK operation.

The GW16143 is a Mini-PCIe high-precision GPS/GNSS adapter for UAV, robotics, surveying, agriculture, mining and field mapping where centimeter-level positioning matters. Multi-band RTK provides fast convergence and reliable performance; the module supports both base and rover operations.
USB signaling is used on the Mini-PCIe connector to communicate with the host processor. Two UART headers are available for correction data via serial. A time pulse output header provides PPS signaling. Antenna and cables are sold separately. Software is supported in the Gateworks Linux BSPs.
This Mini-PCIe card has only been tested on Gateworks Single Board Computers. Gateworks only provides support when used on a Gateworks SBC. Centimeter-level accuracy requires a correction service. The Gateworks GW10044 antenna is not recommended for this card.
