Ethertronics’ antennas deliver on the key needs of device designers for
higher functionality and performance in smaller/thinner designs. These
innovative antennas provide compelling advantages for GPS enabled
handheld devices, media players and other mobile communications devices.
GPS active patch antenna solution utilizes a Low Noise Amplifier (LNA)
mounted on a PCB for superior performance.
