1 Functional description 1.1 Overview

LEON-G1 series modules are cost efficient solutions offering full quad-band GSM / GPRS data and voice functionality in a compact LCC (Leadless Chip Carrier) form factor. Featuring low power consumption and GSM/GPRS class 10 data transmission with voice capability, LEON-G1 series modules combine baseband, RF transceiver, power management unit, and power amplifier in a single, easy-to-integrate solution.

LEON-G1 series modules are fully qualified and certified solutions, reducing cost and enabling short time to market. These modules are ideally suited for M2M and automotive applications such as: Automatic Meter Reading (AMR), Remote Monitoring Automation and Control (RMAC), surveillance and security, eCall, road pricing, asset tracking, fleet management, anti theft systems and Point of Sales (PoS) terminals.

LEON-G1 series modules support full access to u-blox GNSS positioning chips and modules via the GSM modem. GSM and GNSS can be controlled through a single serial port from any host processor. The LEON-G1 compact form factor and SMT pads allow fully automated assembly with standard pick & place and reflow soldering equipment for cost-efficient, high-volume production.

LEON-G1 series - Data Sheet

Encryption algorithms A5/1 for GSM and GPRS as well as the bearer service fax Group 3 Class 2.0 are supported. With correct configuration via AT commands the module can also function as GPRS multislot class 8 device.

The network will automatically configure the number of timeslots available for usage by the module.

The network automatically configures the channel encoding used by the module, depending on the conditions of the quality of the radio link between cell phone and base station. If the channel is very noisy, the network may use the most robust coding scheme (CS-1) to ensure higher reliability. If the channel provides good conditions, the network can use the least robust but fastest coding scheme (CS-4) to obtain optimum speed.

Direct Link mode is supported for TCP sockets.

1.5 ATcommandsupport

The module supports AT commands according to 3GPP standards: TS 27.007 [1], 27.005 [2], 27.010 [3], and the u-blox AT command extension.

For the complete list of the supported AT commands and their syntax see the u-blox AT Commands Manual [4].

RIL (Radio Interface Layer) drivers for Windows and Android are available for LEON-G1 series.

1.6 Supported features

Table 4 describes the main features supported by LEON-G1 series modules. For more details, see the LEON-G1 series System Integration Manual [6] and u-blox AT commands manual [4].

Network Indication All Antenna Detection All Jamming detection All

Embedded TCP and All UDP stack

FTP All HTTP All

SMTP All GNSS via Modem All

AssistNow Software All CellLocate® All

GPIO configured to indicate the network status: registered home network, registered roaming, voice or data call enabled, no service.

The feature can be enabled through the +UGPIOC AT command.

Antenna presence detection capability is provided, evaluating the resistance from the ANT pin to GND by means of an internal antenna detection circuit.

The antenna detection feature can be enabled through the +UANTR AT command.

Detects “artificial” interference that obscures the operator’s carriers providing access to the GSM service and reports the start and stop of such conditions to the application processor (AP). The AP can react appropriately, e.g. by switching off the radio transceiver to reduce power consumption and monitoring the environment at constant periods.

The feature can be enabled and configured through the +UCD AT command.

Embedded TCP/IP and UDP/IP stack for TCP and UDP sockets.

Sockets can be configured in Direct Link mode to establish a transparent end-to-end communication with an already connected TCP socket via serial interface.

File Transfer Protocol functionalities are supported via AT commands.

HTTP protocols are supported. HEAD, GET, POST, DELETE and PUT operations are available. Up to 4 client contexts can be simultaneously used.

SMTP protocol is implemented. It is possible to specify the common parameters (e.g. server data, authentication method, etc.), send an email to a SMTP server. E-mails can be sent with or without attachment. Attachments are stored in the module local file system.

Full access to u-blox positioning chips and modules is available through a dedicated DDC (I2C) interface. This means that wireless module and positioning chips / modules can be controlled through a single serial port from any host processor.

For more details see the GNSS Implementation Application Note [7].

Embedded AssistNow Online and AssistNow Offline clients to provide full developed to provide better GNSS performance and faster Time-to-First-Fix. The clients can be enabled / disabled with an AT command.

Enables the estimation of device position based on the parameters of the mobile network cells visible to the specific device based on the CellLocate® database:

 Normal scan: parameters of the visible home network cells are only sent
 Deep scan: parameters of all surrounding cells of all mobile operators are sent CellLocate® is implemented using a set of AT commands for CellLocate® service configuration and position request.
