One component of the Department of Transportation’s GPS Adjacent Band
;
Compatibility Study is the characterization of GPS/GNSS receiver antennas
;
Such characterization is needed to:
;
Compare radiated and conducted (wired) test results
;
Apply interference tolerance masks (ITMs) to use cases where adjacent band transmitters are seen
;
by GPS/GNSS receiver antennas at any direction besides zenith (antenna boresight)
;
This presentation summarizes characterization data obtained thus far:
;
Gain patterns for 14 external antennas
;
o Right‐hand/left‐hand circular polarization (RHCP/LHCP), vertical (V), and horizontal (H)
;
polarizations
;
o 22 frequencies: 1475, 1490, 1495, 1505, 1520, 1530, 1535, 1540, 1545, 1550, 1555, 1575,
;
1595, 1615, 1620, 1625, 1630, 1635, 1640, 1645, 1660, and 1675 MHz
;
Approximate L1 RHCP relative gain patterns for 4 antennas integrated with receivers
;
Saturation measurements for the 14 external (all active) antennas
;
All antennas provided by the USG
