Does GPS work on a separate chip or is GPS built into the LTE modem?

To clarify on the firmware a bit, the phone arrives with Quectel's proprietary firmware installed because that's required for regulatory approval. The open firmware replaces the supervisory part of the modem firmware, but still uses the Qualcomm binary firmware for the radio layer.
