## TW7972 

## Multi-Constellation Triple-Band Antenna 

**Frequency Coverage:** GPS L1, L2, L5 | GALILEO E1, E5a, E5b | BEIDOU B1, B2a, B2b | GLONASS G1, G2, G3 | NavIC L5 + L-Band 

The TW7972 is a precision-tuned Accutenna® technology antenna supporting triple-band GPS/QZSS-L1/L2/L5, GLONASS-G1/G2/G3, Galileo-E1/E5a/E5b, BeiDouB1/B2b/B2a, NavIC-L5, including the satellite-based augmentation system (SBAS) available in the region of operation [WAAS (North America), EGNOS (Europe), MSAS (Japan), or GAGAN (India)], plus L-Band correction services coverage, and is especially designed for precision triplefrequency positioning. 

This antenna is ideal for precision agriculture, autonomous vehicle tracking and guidance, and other applications where precision matters. 

The TW7972 features a dual-feed circular stacked patch element. The signals from the two orthogonal feeds are summed in quadrature, pre-filtered in a low loss filter to protect against a wide range of potentially interfering signals, amplified in high linearity, wideband LNA, then band-split, tightly filtered and amplified prior to signal recombination at the output. 

This antenna provides superior multipath rejection and axial ratio, a linear phase response, and tight phase centre variation (PCV), while protecting against intermodulation and saturation caused by high-level LTE 700 MHz signals. 

The TW7972 is housed in a magnetic mounted, IP67 weatherproof enclosure. A 100 mm diamter ground plane is recommended for optimal antenna performance. 

## Applications 

- Autonomous vehicle tracking and guidance 

- Positive Train Control (PTC) 

- Positive Train Location (PTL) 

- Precision GNSS positioning 

- Precision agriculture 

## Features 

- Very low noise preamp (< 2.5 dB typ.) 

- Low axial ratio  (< 2.0 dB typ.) 

- Tight phase centre variation 

- High-gain LNA (32 dB typ.)
