nanoPATCH-L1/FM (Flight Model)

Space-Friendly™ CubeSat GPS Antenna.

Do you plan to Launch a Satellite into space and need a SatNav Equipment Onboard? Each GPS/GNSS receiver subsystem requires a High Quality Antenna with low noise, RF filters, high gain and appropriate radiation pattern capturing all available signals from the GNSS constellation.

Squeeze Size. | Keep Performance.

The nanoPATCH-L1 is a long-term optimized CubeSat GPS Antenna specially designed for modern satellites, CubeSats and the majority of University projects, where the satellite development team requires a module with limited size, to be incorporated into an already "fully occupied" satellite wall.

Note: The module requires to be incorporated into RF conductive panels such as PCB with fully flooded copper plane or aluminum solar panel wall. The conductive surface acts as a groundplane which naturally equalizes the antenna radiation pattern. Optimal performance is achieved once the nanoPATCH-L1 is fixed using countersunk screws.

Robust MCX-F connector maintains perfect RF perfomance as well as electrical connection and mechanical stability. For really tight accomodations a right-angle version is mounted on request.

Just connect the RF Coaxial cable with DC power from 2.7 to 5.5V and start to receive first signals from the GPS constellation with your GPS Receiver!

nanoPATCH-L1/EM (Engineering Model)

Each GPS receiver is extremelly sensitive to EMI/EMC environment on the satellite. Check that the GPS functionality is not disturbed by the satellite subsystems (Power Supplies, MPPT Controllers, Magnetorquers, Reaction Wheels, transmitters, receivers with local oscillators, all the PWM driven electronics,...) well before the spaceflight. The Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) Test can be performed easily with the fully functional Engineering Model of the antenna anytime during the whole satellite development and testing campaign.

It is also ready to be connected to the Flight Model of the GPS Receiver. Red Remove Before Flight finish will remind you to replace it with the Flight Model of the antenna before the launch.

The add-on RF Evaluation Panel is delivered together with the antenna module for free as a mechanical demonstrator for further RF, AIV and mechanical tests.
