GPS Antenna gives up to 30% Increase in GPS Accuracy

Canadian based Wi-Sys Communications design and build high performance GPS antennas that push parameters and result in amazing specifications and stunning performance.

Of all GPS antenna parameters, noise figure is one of the critical ones. By using a patented dual LNA design, WS3910 achieves the industry's best noise figure by far (-0.5dB vs industry average of -1.5dB) and the sharpest Out-of-Band SAW Filter. The combination of having the best noise figure with a top performing filter is unique and gives the antenna its outstanding performance.

For tracking in urban canyons and computing accurate positions GPS receivers need the strongest and cleanest signal they can get. While the ratio of the GPS signal to atmospheric noise on initial arrival at the antenna is dependant on factors beyond our control the ratio of GPS signal to system noise within the antenna itself can be.

Wi-Sys optimise performance of their GPS antennas through much lower noise figure and dual LNA filters which result in a much better signal to noise ratio and the delivery to the GPS.

Receiver of more signal to process resulting in better tracking, accuracy in all situations and also faster fixes. It has been shown that agricultural users of the WS3910 typically get a 30% improvement in accuracy.

GPS users with critical performance requirements must have high performance GPS antennas like the WS3910. Only where GPS performance is not critical can ordinary GPS antennas be satisfactory.

Wi-Sys Communications make many high performance quality GPS antennas to optimize client's choice of mount, gain, cost, power consumption, filtering, ruggedness, noise figure, connectors, out of band rejection, size, dual band and environmental protection.
