1. Introduction
The AP.10G.01 one stage 14dB active GPS patch antenna is the smallest SMT GPS
high performance embedded antenna currently available in the world. Using
extremely sensitive high dielectric constant powder formulation and tight process
control the 10mm x 10mm x 4mm patch antenna is accurately tuned to have its
frequency band right at 1575.42MHz for GPS systems.
A patented SMT structure gives high reliability in integration. With an ultra low
power consumption one stage LNA with Saw Filter , this small active patch has the
performance of an ordinary active patch, but at only a quarter of the size. This
product is suited to small form factor mobile devices such as GPS Smartphones,
Personal Location, Medical devices, Telematic devices and Automotive navigation
and tracking. Custom gain, connector and cable versions are available.
The AP.10G consists of 2 functional blocks – the LNA and also the patch antenna.
