GWLA.01 Antenna Router GNSS, Wi-Fi, ISM embedded ceramic loop chip for Navigation or Position Tracking Systems, Handheld Devices, Tablet PCs, OBD Devices

GWLA.01 is a compact embedded ceramic loop antenna that combines GNSS (GPS L1/GALILEO) and 2.4GHz wireless support in a single low-profile component. With two separate antenna feeds (one per band), it helps reduce PCB space versus using two separate antennas and simplifies RF integration in size-constrained devices.

• 2-in-1 design: separate feeds for GNSS and 2.4GHz wireless
• Embedded SMD/SMT format: miniature, edge-mounted ceramic antenna
• Tunable integration: can be optimized for different PCB sizes/environments by adjusting the matching circuit
• Designed to use the main PCB as the ground plane to maintain good efficiency in compact devices

Typical use cases include navigation/position tracking devices, handheld products, tablets, OBD devices, gateways/routers, mobile cameras, and UAV communication systems.
