Description

The RAKwireless RAKAGPS1 is an active GPS antenna with a built-in low-noise amplifier (LNA) for the 1559–1577 MHz GPS L1 band. It strengthens weak satellite signals for reliable positioning and timing.

It suits LoRaWAN gateway installers and base-station operators who need accurate GPS time and location at outdoor sites.

Core Capabilities

Active LNA28 ± 2 dB LNA gain pulls in weak GPS signals.
Filtered ReceptionA SAW filter (30 dB min at ±45 MHz) and a 1.5 dB max noise figure keep interference out.
Low-Power SupplyRuns on 3 V DC at ≤10 mA, fed up the coaxial cable from the receiver.
Outdoor RatedPole-mount housing for -40°C to +85°C operation.

Applications

LoRaWAN gateways: add GPS timing and location for fine timestamping and geolocation
Base stations: GPS time synchronisation for outdoor radio equipment
GNSS-timed equipment: a strong, filtered L1 signal for professional installations

Technical Integration

The antenna connects to the GPS input of your gateway or receiver.

Frequency: 1559–1577 MHz (GPS L1)
Power: 3 V ± 0.3 V DC bias, ≤10 mA, supplied through the coaxial cable
Connector: N-type male on a 2 m RG195 cable
Interface: 50 Ω, right-hand circular polarisation (RHCP)
Setup help: the shopioT team can help you check gateway GPS input compatibility
