Maxtena M1227HCT series antennas with Helicore technology

The Maxtena M1227HCT series antennas use Helicore technology to achieve an upper-hemisphere efficiency >40% in both L1 and L2 GPS bands and typical axial ratio performance of 0.5 dB over the entire upper hemisphere.

Coupled with an integrated wideband LNA, the antenna achieves +16 dBic performance in both GPS L1 and L2 bands for high-precision, dual-frequency GPS applications. The technology enables the small antenna to operate in demanding applications giving maximum satellite reception, low dilution of precision and decimetre accuracy.

Compact and lightweight, the antenna is suitable for airborne applications through to precision surveying equipment. Unlike traditional GPS patch antennas, the M1227HCT requires no ground plane to achieve its performance making it suitable for limited space applications.

Its features include: claimed only Helical L1/L2 antenna of this size; non-ceramic - more immune to breakage; SMA connection with TNC option.
