Description 

CSR’s next generation SiRFusion™ location platform is based on the SiRFstarV™ architecture for optimum indoor and outdoor performance.

SiRFstarV chips are capable of tracking GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, Compass, SBAS, and future GNSS signals. The SiRFusion platform integrates positioning from GNSS, terrestrial radio solutions such as Wi-Fi and cellular, and MEMS sensors including accelerometers, gyroscopes, and compasses.  SiRFusion can then combine this real-time information with cellular base station and Wi-Fi access point location data, ephemeris data and other cloud-based aiding information from the CSR Positioning Center (CPC) to generate accurate and reliable position updates.

The result is high availability and accuracy for positioning and navigation outdoors, in urban canyons, in parking garages, and indoors in shopping centers, airports, convention centers, and other pedestrian areas.  SiRFstarV and SiRFusion extend the availability and reliability of popular LBS applications like mapping, searching, finding, tracking, and navigating.
