Key highlights

The PlaneWave PW1515-201 GPS L1 LNA is designed for satellite applications. It is the LNA-only version of the PW1515-001 antenna. It shares identical features and design with PW1515-001 in every aspect, except for the absence of the radiating element. Instead, the input of the LNA section is connectorized. This configuration facilitates connectorized tests, including Hardware-In-The-Loop test (HITL), irradiation test, noise figure active gain test and verification, and more.

Key features

  • Same active circuitry as PW1515-001
  • Radiation tolerant
  • Wide operating temperature range

BENEFITS

  • Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS)
  • Facilitates Hardware-In-The-Loop (HITL) tests
  • Facilitates irradiation tests
  • Consultation services available (link budget, architecture, and system design)
