Description
Pin-based, semi-hemispherical ground plane GNSS antenna
The PN-A5 antenna combines our TA-5 full-spectrum GNSS antenna element with an innovative convex impedance ground plane. The TA-5 antenna element utilizes an array of vertical dipoles to provide highly sensitive and stable full wave signal tracking for all existing and planned GNSS signals. Our new convex impedance ground plane provides improved multipath mitigation while providing minimum signal loss for satellites tracked to the horizon.
