GNSS receivers compared: 39 models

GNSS receivers fix position and time on orbit and on the ground. The listings below span both space-qualified units and ground reference receivers, so read the mass column together with the manufacturer.

Figures are taken from manufacturer datasheets and product pages, normalised to common units. Every row links to the product page and, where available, to the datasheet itself. As of 2026-08-13.
