Harxon has released the all-constellation GNSS antenna GPS1000, receiving GPS L1/L2/L5, BDS B1/B2/B3, GLONASS L1/L2, Galileo E1/E2/E5a/E5b and L-band signals.

GPS1000 can be used in land survey, marine survey, channel survey, seismic monitoring, bridge survey and agriculture applications, providing consistent performance across the full bandwidth, the company said.

The antenna has high gain and wide beam width to ensure the signal receiving performance of satellite at the low elevation angle, and the phase center remains constant as the azimuth and elevation angle of the satellites change.

Placement and installation of the antenna can be completed with ease because the signal reception is unaffected by the rotation of the antenna or satellite elevation. The influence of measurement error can be minimized via the multi-feed design and embedded multipath rejection board.

The GPS1000 waterproof and dustproof design has reached a standard of IP67, maintaining good performance for long-time outdoor operation.

Moreover, the advanced low noise amplifier can reduce jamming by high-power out-of-band transmitters. It can be customized for the best solution for customers, Harxon said.
