| | | GNSS Active Ceramic Patch Antennas Roll |
| Linx Technologies has introduced seven Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) active ceramic patch antennas. These antennas support global GNSS applications including GPS, Galileo, GLONASS, Beidou, NavIC and QZSS systems in the L1/E1/B1, L2/E5/B2B and L5/E5/B2A bands. Each antenna integrates a high gain low noise amplifier (LNA) and right-hand circular polarization (RHCP) to provide a high-performance solution for GNSS signal reception. |
