GPS Satellite Positioning Antenna(Center Frequency
1575.42MHz, SMA Male)
A
GPS antenna
is a radio frequency antenna that provides connectivity with the
Global Positioning System
, a proprietary, satellite-based radio navigation system designed, created, and owned by government
. When appropriately connected to a GPS transceiver, the GPS antenna is able to transmit and receive the specific radio frequency signals needed for a GPS device to perform its
time,
location,
and
navigation
functions. In performing this function
GPS antennas
become the key point of interaction between the satellites which form the GPS Space Segment and the GPS User segment (receivers).
