  INTRODUCTION

  Hey, what's up, Guys! Akarsh here from CETech.

  Today, we are going to go through A9G GPS, GSM, and GPRS module from AI Thinker. There are several other modules as well such as A9 and A6 from AI Thinker which have similar GSM and GPRS capabilities but the special thing about A9G is that with GSM and GPRS capabilities it is GPS enabled as well and is capable in doing GPS related functions which gives it an edge over other modules.

  In this tutorial, we will try the functioning of the GPS capabilities of this module and after that, towards the end, we will also check the functioning of the module in GSM and GPRS mode.

  So Let's jump straight into it.

  About A9G Module

  The A9G is a complete quad-band GSM / GPRS module that combines GPRS and GPS / BDS technologies and integrates it in a compact SMD package, saving customers time and money in developing GNSS applications. The A9G by default comes with a bootloader or firmware and hence it can be controlled using AT commands through Arduino, ESP8266, and Raspberry Pi as well. It can be used to connect modules such as Arduino and Raspberry Pi to the internet and can be used in a wide range of IoT applications and is ideal for IoT applications for home automation, industrial wireless control, wearable electronics, wireless location sensing devices, wireless location system signals, and other IoT applications.
  

  A9G SMD package uses the standard SMT equipment to achieve the rapid production of products, especially for automation, large-scale, low-cost modern production methods for the convenience of a variety of Internet of Things hardware terminal applications.
