Cellular Connectivity Module

Radiofrequency ElectronicsEmbedded Firmware

Overview

Designed a Cellular Communication Module (CCM) that integrates with EDL's Vehicle Control Unit (VCU) to provide remote fleet management capabilities.

Context

In several micromobility and automotive products, fleet management is essential for monitoring vehicle location and preventing anti-theft.

The CCM was developed to add Internet of Things (IoT) capabilities to EDL's VCU, enabling cellular and satellite connectivity for customers requiring remote vehicle monitoring and fleet management.

Key Features

  • Cellular Connectivity: LTE-M (CAT-1)
  • Satellite Connectivity: GNSS
  • Firmware Updates: Over-the-Air & UART Bootloader
  • Flash Memory: 256 MB
  • Power Consumption: 0.66 W (low power mode), 1.05 W (normal)
