6.5.2.
Linear and Patch GPS/GNSS Antenna
Using this type of antenna introduces at least 3dB of loss if compared to a circularly polarized
(CP) antenna. Having a spherical gain response instead of a hemispherical gain response
could aggravate the multipath behaviour & create poor position accuracy.
6.5.3.
Front End Design Considerations
When using the Telit LE920, since there’s no antenna connector on the module, the antenna
must be connected to the LE920 through the PCB with the antenna pad.
In the case that the antenna is not directly connected at the antenna pad of the LE920, then a
PCB line is required.
This line of transmission shall fulfill the following requirements:
Antenna Line on PCB Requirements
Characteristic Impedance
50Ohm
Max Attenuation
0.3dB
Coupling with other signals shall be avoided
Cold End (Ground Plane) of antenna shall be equipotential to the LE920 ground pads
Furthermore if the device is developed for the US and/or Canada market, it must comply with
the FCC and/or IC requirements.
This device is to be used only for mobile and fixed application.

GPS/GNSS Antenna - PCB Line Guidelines
x
Ensure that the antenna line impedance is 50ohm.
x
Keep line on the PCB as short as possible to reduce the loss.
x
Antenna line must have uniform characteristics, constant cross section, avoid meanders
and abrupt curves.
x
Keep one layer of the PCB used only for the Ground plane; if possible.
x
Surround (on the sides, over and under) the antenna line on PCB with Ground. Avoid
