GPS RF Front End Module: NW-RF-GPS-FE
The NW-RF-GPS-FE is a satellite terminal RF front end module designed to provide 20 Watts of RF power to boost the performance of data links in a number of applications including GPS, RF telemetry, unmanned systems and vehicles, satellite terminals, and software defined radios. This high-performance RF front end is a powerful combination of the NuPower 13G05A RF power amplifier, low noise figure LNAs, a high isolation diplexer between the transmit and receive paths, and band-reject filters.
The NW-RF-GPS-FE accepts a nominal 0 dBm (1 mW) RF input, and provides 43 dB of gain from 1626.5 to 1675 MHz, and 47 dB of gain from 1518 to 1559 MHz. It supports both constant envelope and complex waveforms such as APSK, QAM, DVB-T, etc. Additional benefits include an improved link margin, a reduced load on DC power, and less required volume on space-constrained platforms.
