Cobham Antenna Systems has announced a new next generation Anti-Jam GPS System. The system provides significant immunity to jamming compared with a conventional GPS antenna, allowing the platform to operate over 100 times closer to the jammer whilst maintaining its GPS reception.
The anti-jamming system consists of a 7-6005 Anti-Jam GPS DACU (Digital Antenna Control Unit) and a four channel 20-7009 Anti-Jam GPS CRPA (Controlled Reception Pattern Array) antenna. Both units meet stringent airborne requirements making them ideal for new installations and retrofitting to fixed wing, rotary wing, and UAV platforms.
The compact size and modularity of the DACU and CRPA, as well as being receiver independent, means that the system can also be installed in Land and Marine applications so offering a single solution for all platforms. The high performance, four channel antenna and electronic system, offers the optimum balance between size, weight, power and cost. Intelligent, dual-band protection is provided with processing optimized to combat the threat environment.
