ANTENNA DESCRIPTION
The Geofind
TM
GPS (1575 MHz) Chip Antenna is specifically engineered for low cost, consumer
electronics mobile GPS devices.
The Geofind™ Chip Antenna uses space-filling properties of Fractus technology to minimise its
size and cost while maintaining a high radiation efficiency value. This monopole antenna
performs an omnidirectional radiation pattern, allowing it to work effectively regardless of the
position of the GPS device
.
