6100Antenna
High Precision Full GNSS Spectrum Antenna
The patented
VeraPhase
®
6100 antenna is a full GNSSspectrum
antenna. It has consistent performance (gain, axial ratio, PCV,
and PCO) across the full bandwidth of the antenna. It provides
the lowest axial ratios (horizon to horizon, over all azimuths)
across all GNSS frequencies (<0.5dB at zenith, <2 dB typ. at
horizon). It has an exceptional front to back ratios, high
efficiency (>70%), a tight PCV, and near constant PCO for all
azimuth and elevation angles, over all in-band frequencies. The
performance of the VeraPhase
®
rivals any geodetic / reference
antennas including choke ring antennas but is lighter, smaller,
more economical, and requires less power.
The VP6100 provides high receive gain over the full GNSS
spectrum: Low GNSS band (1164MHz to 1300MHz) and High
GNSS band (1559MHz to 1610 MHz). It has a robust pre-
filtered LNA, with high IP3 to minimize de-sensing from high-
level out-of-band signals, including 700MHz LTE, Ligado
®
while still providing a noise figure of less than 3.0dB.
An uncommitted PCB is available within the base of the antenna
for integration of a custom system board such as a PPP or RTK
GNSS receiver or other applications.
