GPS PCB Antennas

A GPS/global positioning system is an interrelated assembly or device (component) constituted intending to determine a position in space.

The GPS/global positioning system ensures that at least four satellites can be observed simultaneously at any point on the Earth at any given moment to ensure that the satellites can pick up the latitude, longitude, and altitude of the observation point to fulfill the functions of navigation, positioning, timing and so on.

This GPS technology can be used to guide aircraft, ships, vehicles, and individuals to reach their destinations safely and accurately along selected routes and on time.

In addition to the GPS of the United States, there is also the Beidou satellite navigation system of China, the Galileo satellite navigation system of the European Union, and the Russian Global Navigation Satellite System (GLONASS).

Main applications of GPS:

(1) Land applications, including vehicle navigation, emergency response, atmospheric physical observation, geophysical resource exploration, engineering measurement, deformation monitoring, crustal movement monitoring, municipal planning, and control;

(2) Marine applications, including determination of optimal voyage routes for ocean-going vessels, real-time scheduling and navigation of vessels, marine rescue, marine treasure hunting, hydrogeological measurements, and positioning of marine platforms, and sea level rise and fall monitoring;

(3) Aerospace applications, including aircraft navigation, aviation remote sensing attitude control, low orbit satellite orbiting, missile guidance, aviation rescue, and manned spacecraft protection detection.
Mainly for ships, cars, aircraft, and other moving objects for positioning and navigation. For example:

1. Ship ocean navigation and harbor water diversion

2. Aircraft route guidance and approach and landing

3. Automobile autonomous navigation

4. Ground vehicle tracking and urban intelligent traffic management

5. Emergency life-saving

6. Personal travel and wilderness adventure

7. The personal communication terminal (integrated with mobile phone, PDA, electronic map, etc.)

8. Time synchronization of power, postal, and telecommunication networks.

9. Accurate time granting

10. Frequency synchronization

11. Various levels of geodetic and control surveys

12. Roads and all kinds of line layouts

13. Underwater topographic surveys

14. Deformation measurements of the earth’s crust, deformation monitoring of dams and large buildings

15. GIS applications

16. Control of construction machinery (tyre cranes, bulldozers, etc.)

17. Precision agriculture

Passive GPS Antennas Manufacturer

Active GPS Antennas Supplier

C&T RF Antennas Inc. is an indoor-outdoor passive GPS antenna manufacturer and active GPS antenna supplier in China.

How do GPS PCB antennas work?

GPS PCB antennas come in two flavors: active and passive. Active antennas come with a low-noise amplifier (LNA) built into the module, while a passive antenna does not include an amplifier. Active antennas sit on their board and connect to your printed circuit board with a coax cable.

What should be paid attention to in GPS PCB antenna design?

1. Try to be as short as possible.

2. Design for impedance matching.

3. Stay away from interference sources.
