Below are proven component options to add RTK GNSS and a 900 MHz correction-link to your design. I’ve prioritized modules that are easy to integrate with your ESP32-S2 and have wide ecosystem support.

Recommendations
  • Easiest path: ZED-F9P-00B + XBP9X-DMUS-001. Both are UART-friendly. XBee handles a continuous RTCM stream reliably at long range in 902–928 MHz ISM.
  • Low-power/robust link: ZED-F9P-00B + RFM95W-915S2. Throughput depends on LoRa settings; suitable for modest RTCM rates with proper spreading factor/bandwidth.
  • Compact RTK: NEO-F9P-15B when PCB space is tight.
Integration notes
  • Interfaces: Route one dedicated UART from ESP32-S2 to the RTK module (NMEA/UBX + RTCM), and a second UART (or SPI if chosen) to the 900 MHz radio.
  • Antennas: Use separate GNSS and 900 MHz antennas with good isolation and clear ground keepouts. Place GNSS as far from 900 MHz PA and LTE as practical.
  • Coexistence and decoupling: Keep RF modules on board edges, add solid ground stitching vias along RF boundaries, and follow each module’s layout guide. Add downstream ceramic decoupling near switching/noisy loads to reduce EMI coupling.
  • Regulatory: Confirm your region (e.g., 902–928 MHz) and set radio parameters accordingly.
A couple of quick questions to finalize the pick:
  1. What region/band will you operate in (915 MHz ISM in NA, 868 MHz in EU, etc.)?
  2. Do you prefer a UART-based radio link (XBee) or SPI-based (LoRa) for corrections?
  3. Any hard constraints on PCB area or module height?
Once you choose the RTK + 900 MHz pair, I can add them to your schematic.
