Introduction The Taoglas Accura GVLB258.A, is a multi-band GPS, BeiDou/Compass and IRNSS, high-performance directional antenna for high precision GPS and BeiDou accuracy and fast positioning. It utilizes a 25*25*8mm advanced wide-band dual stacked ceramic patch antenna with optimized gain for GPS L1/L5, Galileo, GLONASS and BeiDou bands. Typical Applications Include: - RTK - Wearables - Transportation - Agriculture - Navigation - Security - Autonomous Vehicles The GVLB258.A has been tuned and tested on a 70 x 70 mm ground plane and exhibits excellent radiation patterns. The GVLB258.A has been optimised to cover the bands required for the next generation of L1/L5 GNSS receivers that are currently on the market. Patch antennas can be specifically tuned to customer-specific device environments, subject to NRE and MOQ. Contact your regional Taoglas customer support team to request these services or additional support to integrate and test this antenna’s performance in your device. www.taoglas.com 3 SPE-21-8-082-A ## **2.** Specifications |**GNSS Frequency Bands Covered**|**GNSS Frequency Bands Covered**|**GNSS Frequency Bands Covered**|**GNSS Frequency Bands Covered**|**GNSS Frequency Bands Covered**|**GNSS Frequency Bands Covered**|**GNSS Frequency Bands Covered**| |---|---|---|---|---|---|---| |**GPS**|L1|L2|L5|||| ||▓|□|▓|||| |**GLONASS**|G1|G2|G3|||| ||▓|□|□|||| |**Galileo**|E1|E5a|E5b|E6||| ||▓|▓|□|□||| |**BeiDou**|B1|B2a|B2b|B3||| ||▓|□|□|□||| |**QZSS**
