SPECIFICATION Part No. : GWLA.10 Description : GPS/GALILEO & Dual-Band Wi-Fi Ceramic Loop Antenna Embedded 2in1 Structure Features : Tiny Size Omnidirectional 3.2*1.6*0.5mm High Efficiency Multi-Band Application 1575.42MHz GPS/GALILEO and 2.4/5.8GHz Wi-Fi Two Separate Feeds on one Antenna Economical Low profile Surface-Mount RoHS compliant SPE-16-08-049/C/WY Page 1 of 24 1. Introduction The GWLA.10 GPS/GALILEO and 2.4/5.8GHz 2in1 Embedded Ceramic Loop antenna is a high efficiency, miniature SMD, edge mounted ceramic antenna for GPS/GALILEO and Wi-Fi, WLAN, ZigBee, Bluetooth, and 802.11ac applications where PCB space is limited, such as hand-held devices. Rather than using two separate chip antennas for GPS/GALILEO and Wi-Fi, the GWLA.10 has two separate antenna feeds in a single antenna body, making it the ideal choice for applications where there is limited PCB space and where low cost is important. The GWLA.10 uses the main PCB as its ground plane, thereby maintaining good efficiency despite its small size. The GWLA.10 can be tuned for different PCB sizes/environments by changing the values of the matching circuit. This needs to be carefully calculated, contact a regional Taoglas facility for support. Also be aware that smaller ground-planes will reduce the efficiency of the antenna. At 3.2*1.6*0.5mm, the GWLA.10 is one of the smallest antennas available worldwide. This antenna is delivered on tape and reel and manufactured in a TS16949 first tier automotive approved facility. The GPS/GALILEO performance is excellent, with high efficiency and an omnidirectional pattern. The Wi-Fi performance is also great and delivers stable efficiency and radiation pattern too, allowing this antenna to be used in a huge variety of devices. Typical Applications Where GPS/GALILEO and Dual-Band Wi-Fi are required - Navigation or Position Tracking Systems - Handheld Devices - Tablets - POS Systems - Gateways and Routers - Mobile Wireless Camera Systems - OBD Devices SPE-16-08-049/C/WY Page 2 of 24
