L145 Datasheet, PDF (1/4 Pages) Pulse A Technitrol Company – GPS L1 Band & GLONASS Ceramic Patch Antenna

GPS L1 Band & GLONASS
Ceramic Patch Antenna
Pulse Part Number W3216
Pulse is pleased to announce the W3216 GPS and
GLONASS patch antenna to compliment our growing
range of tracking antenna products. This small 0.5 x
0.5 inch (13 x 13 mm) ceramic patch antenna is .2 inches
(5 mm) high and has a pinthrough mount. The underside
of the antenna has double-sided tape for adhesion to the
customer board.
Operating at 1.575 GHz, (L1 GPS band) and 1.598-
1.606 GHz (GLONASS), the W3216 patch provides circu-
larly polarized radiation patterns to connect to satellite
systems. Reported performance is based on a ground
plane of 2 x 2 inches (50 x 50 mm) delivering a gain
of -2 dBic at Zenith. Increasing the size of the ground
plane can significantly boost the actual application gain.
Contact Pulse for applications support to get the best
performance from your Navigation system.
