The Abracon PRO-OB-430 is a high-performance square omni-directional GPS antenna designed for external use with an SMA connector. It supports multiple GNSS protocols including Galileo, GLONASS, GPS, and BeiDou, making it suitable for global navigation applications.
This antenna utilizes PIFA (Planar Inverted-F Antenna) technology, requiring mounting on a ground plane to ensure optimal performance. For multi-layer PCB designs, it is advantageous to add vias to connect ground areas smoothly and avoid splits, maintaining signal integrity and antenna efficiency. A ground clearance is essential around no-connect (NC) pads and the RF feed pad across all PCB layers.
The low profile of just 3.33 mm combined with its compact square physical form factor enables easy integration into space-constrained designs. Its frequency range spans 1560 MHz to 1602 MHz, covering upper GNSS bands for robust satellite signal reception.
With a peak gain of 0.7 dBi and mixed linear polarization, this antenna ensures strong and consistent gain performance, with efficiency exceeding 42%. Designed for surface mount usage, it can be soldered directly onto PCBs, facilitating streamlined assembly in electronic devices.
To achieve maximum antenna efficiency and impedance matching in your application, implementation of a matching network is recommended. This antenna is suitable for diverse industrial and commercial applications including navigation, agriculture, surveying, and communication systems.
