ArduinoUbxLib

Purpose

A C++ Arduino library that helps communicating with uBlox GNSS receivers via the proprietary ubx protocol.

Software library

Design Goals

  1. Easy to use and useful
  2. Extendable

How to use the library

The main part of the library is the class UbxGps that provides the functionality to parse data that is input via the parse() method. Any correctly identified (and known) UBX messages, NMEA GPS or proprietary PUBX messages are reported with the onReceive() methods. When overriding these methods the identified messages can be further processed. Messages generally have the payload pl included which is a struct containing all specific data. For example, the structure of the NAV-STATUS ubx message is as follows:

struct UbxNavStatusPayload {
	unsigned int iTOW = 0;
	byte gpsFix = 0;
	byte flags = 0;
	byte fixStat = 0;
	byte flags2 = 0;
	unsigned int ttff = 0;
	unsigned int msss = 0;
};

Hardware

I tested the software with my GY-GPS6MV2 module that has a uBlox NEO-6M chip. Compatibility with other uBlox chips is not guaranteed, but feedback is highly appreciated!
