HX-CT3602A Timing Antenna GPS GLONASS L1

Written by EAD Admin on 20th June 2024. Posted in GNSS Antennas, Harxon GNSS.

The HX-CT3602A timing antenna from Harxon is especially designed for timing, mobile, precision and military applications, covering the GPS, GLONASS and GALILEO signal reception. It can provide truly circular response over the antenna’s entire bandwidth thereby producing superior multipath signal rejection.

This antenna features a highly circular wideband patch element with a high-performance Low Noise Amplifier. This configuration provides excellent axial ratio that is constant across the full frequency band. Its filtering design allows for wideband coverage while achieving superior out of band rejection and high gain 28dB performance. The small, conical design minimizes perching and provides runoff.

The HX-CT3602A timing antenna is housed in a permanent mount industrial-grade weatherproof enclosure and terminated in a TNC-Female connector.

HX-CHX600A Multi-constellation lightweight helix antenna

Written by EAD Admin on 14th October 2023. Posted in GNSS Antennas, Harxon GNSS.

The HX-CHX600A Multi-constellation lightweight helix antenna from Harxon is designed for high precision positioning and offers superior satellite signal tracking, including GPS, GLONASS, GALILEO and Beidou as well as L-Band correction service. Its RTK level positioning accuracy makes it ideal to be integrated into application as surveying and mapping, and various UAVs operations.

Harxon’s D-QHA technology ensures more stable performance of wide-angle circular polarization (WACP), and smaller antenna phase center deviation (PCV), which ensures a more precise positioning accuracy.

Strong anti-interference performance through a LNA that features an excellent out-of-band rejection performance, which can suppress the electromagnetic interference, providing stability and reliability of GNSS signals.

The compact dimensions of the HX-CHX600A Multi-constellation lightweight helix antenna of 40×82.6mm (dxh) do not compromise it superior signal tracking capabilities.

L1 L2 L5 Antennas from EAD offer enhanced precision

Written by EAD Admin on 23rd October 2019. Posted in News.

Two L1 L2 L5 antennas introduced recently by EAD enable enhanced precision and accuracy in global GNSS tracking and timing applications.

The MP-RTK is a global GNSS magnetic mount puck antenna which is robust and low profile with an active antenna element. Ideal for mobile non-permanent tracking and positioning installations where permanent mount antennas are undesirable, the MP-RTK antenna is compact, durable and waterproof. It is fed by a 3M cable as standard which exits from the side of the unit and whilst terminated with a SMA-Male connector as standard, other connector terminations are possible. The MP-RTK antenna has an integrated LNA with approximately 37 dB effective gain for GPS L1, 36 dB effective gain for GPS L2 and 32 dB effective gain for GPS L5 thereby offering high gain performance.

The HIGAIN-RTK antenna is a high gain multi-constellation antenna for outdoor pole-mount deployment. This antennas mounts to poles with a 1-14 UNF thread. With effective gain of 41 dBi for GPS L1, GLONASS G1, GALILEO E2-L1-E1 and BEIDOU B1 and an effective gain of 39 dB for GPS L2, L5, GLONASS G2, GALILEO E5A, E5B, E6 and BEIDUO B2 and B3, the HIGAIN-RTK offers flexibility allowing the antenna to be installed some distance from the receiver using low loss cables.
