Description
The 240-GM13 module is a specialized satellite IoT communication module designed for short message communication with the in-orbit Tianqi constellation. It incorporates low-power algorithms, data storage management, and an adaptive channel selection algorithm. This allows the module to communicate reliably with satellites opportunistically, significantly reducing power consumption during communication. The module is particularly suitable for IoT applications in areas without terrestrial mobile networks. Its features include low power consumption, efficient data storage, and intelligent channel selection for robust satellite communication. The module operates with a working voltage of 3.3~5.3V, has a transmit frequency band of 240-243MHz and a receive frequency band of 318-320MHz. It supports a communication rate of 488~2734bps and can store 480 frames of data, with each frame up to 120 bytes. The module uses an LCC package and communicates via a TTL serial port (3.3V) with a default baud rate of 115200bps. It also supports voltage acquisition from 0.1-1.1V.
