Characterising an adaptive antenna
How to test CRPAs and other advanced GNSS antenna designs

Properly integrated, adaptive antennas such as CRPAs provide increased precision and robustness to positioning systems. As continuous, high-accuracy positioning is demanded by more and more industries, adaptive antennas are becoming more widely used.
In this paper, Spirent considers:
How adaptive antennas work
What you need to know about integrating an adaptive antenna
What equipment is required to qualify a system
A viable test methodology
How Spirent helps our customers to develop high-performance systems
