‘Gps Antenna’
An Electronicstalk guide
Start with the news release Chip filters optimise performance of mobile phones from Taiyo Yuden, which we summarised at the time by saying "Taiyo Yuden's latest lines of chip filters are designed to optimise the performance, while minimising the size, of mobile phones. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Radio antenna module suited for embedded GPS from Antenova: "The M10372 GPS Radionova is a planar-mount GPS Radio Antenna Module that is suited for embedded GPS, machine-to-machine (M2M) and mobile device applications.".
In December 2010, we covered the news from Low Power Radio Solutions - take a look at Yagi antenna used on near-space balloon project which says: "Low Power Radio Solutions has provided a high-sensitivity, omnidirectional Yagi antenna to four amateur space enthusiasts who have now managed five high-altitude balloon flights into near space.".
Take a look also at the news release from Tyco Electronics, Tiny connectors for the smallest of mobile devices, as well as Analyser facilitates antenna station installation from Rohde and Schwarz, and Antenova develops ultra-small ceramic chip antenna from Antenova.
