 EPSILON CLOCK User’s Manual 

8-3 

of  the  sky,  at  an  angle  higher  than  or  equal  to 65°  (optimum  at  85°), is  recommended 
per the following example: 

 

Figure 8 - 1. GPS Antenna Locations. 

 
 

NOTE:

 

The  open  view  angles  are  given  according  to  the  criteria  of  a  complete  GPS 
constellation of 24 satellites, evenly distributed i around the Earth.

 

8.2.2  Gain calculation 

To  ensure  the  correct  reception  of  the  GPS  signal,  the  overall  system  of  antenna  / 
cable / protection  (and line amplifier / splitter if used) requires a relative gain of 15 to 
30 dB. 

Example: 

GPS Signals 

GPS antenna placed in direct view of the sky 

50 m of  KX4 cable (-30 dB typical / 100 m) 

G1 = 35 dB typical 

G2 = - 15 dB 

EPSILON SSU 

Lightning protection  

G3 = -1 dB 

 

Figure 8 - 2. Gain calculation. 

  G1 + G2 + G3 = 35 dB - 15 dB - 1 dB = 

19 dB 

  Thus: 15 dB < G1 + G2 + G3=19 dB < 30 dB
