Xona PULSAR offers precise, secure positioning for GNSS hardware.
Xona Space Systems announces a new collaboration with Trimble. Xona and Trimble are working to integrate Trimble correction services with Xona’s PULSAR navigation service. Initial satellite launches are expected in late 2026 with service starting in 2027 through the PULSAR satellite network, enabling secure, high-precision positioning for applications ranging from geospatial to low-power mass mobile and IoT. In support of this new and developing collaboration, Xona has received an investment from Trimble Ventures.
Xona PULSAR, powered by Xona’s planned network of small satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO), is designed to provide precise and secure positioning and navigation services compatible with existing GNSS hardware. The PULSAR service, incorporating high-precision correction through this collaboration, is designed to offer scalable and cost-efficient solutions for industries with strict positioning and navigation needs, including civil construction, surveying and mapping, automotive, and IoT applications. Xona’s signals are also expected to enable operations inside low-rise buildings, as well as improve resistance to jamming and interference compared to current GNSS capabilities.
Precision positioning solutions from Low Earth Orbit (LEO) constellations are designed to offer improved capabilities and consistent uptime to support evolving industry needs. Integrating Trimble correction services with Xona PULSAR is intended to improve service reliability, particularly for users in areas with limited cell coverage, restricted sky visibility, high-latitude regions, and other challenging locations.
