## **1. Introduction** 

The AP.10H.01 two stage 25dB active GPS/GALILEO patch antenna is the smallest SMT GPS/GALILEO high performance embedded antenna currently available in the world. Using extremely sensitive high dielectric constant powder formulation and tight process control the 10mm x 10mm x 4mm patch antenna is accurately tuned to have its frequency band right at 1575.42MHz for GPS/GALILEO systems. 

A patented SMT structure gives high reliability in integration. With an ultra low power consumption two stage LNA with Saw Filter, this small active patch has the performance of an ordinary active patch, but at only a quarter of the size. This product is suited to small form factor mobile devices such as GPS/GALILEO Smartphones, Personal Location, Medical devices, Telematic devices and Automotive navigation and tracking. Custom gain, connector and cable versions are available. 

The AP.10H consists of 2 functional blocks – the LNA and also the patch antenna.
