Description
This compact dual-band GNSS stacked patch antenna is designed for high-precision positioning and fast acquisition in space-constrained devices. Its wideband performance supports modern L1/L5 GNSS receivers across multiple satellite constellations, making it well-suited for embedded navigation and timing solutions.
- Dual-band GNSS support: Enables improved accuracy and robustness compared to single-band solutions
- Compact stacked patch design: Helps achieve strong performance in a small footprint
- Multi-constellation coverage: Supports GPS, Galileo, GLONASS, and BeiDou bands listed on the product page
Typical applications include:
- Automotive Navigation Systems
- Transportation
- Drones & UAVs
- Agriculture
- Industrial IoT Devices
- Timing & Synchronization
Installation / Environmental
The following is an example on how to integrate the GVLB256.A into a design. The GVLB256.A has one pin which is used for the RF Feed. A minimum of 70x70mm ground plane is recommended to ensure optimal performance.
