MGA1 GNSS Multiband Antenna

The MGA1 covers the full L-band: GPS L1/L2/L5, Galileo E1/E5a/E5b/E6, BeiDou, GLONASS, QZSS, plus SBAS and L-band correction services. Its homogeneous radiation pattern and tightly controlled phase centre, largely independent of frequency and elevation — deliver a positioning solution that does not depend on the vehicle's heading. Multipath and typical interference are effectively suppressed. The light weight active antenna is tolerant against changes in installation environment. Optional protection against military L-band radar sources. Made in Germany, containing patented Fraunhofer IIS technology.

Antenna & Receiver Analyzer (ARA) Software

ARA is our own measurement software for GNSS antennas and receivers. It compares antenna-and-receiver combinations under real field conditions rather than laboratory assumptions, making differences in signal quality, multipath behaviour and positioning performance verifiable. This is the data basis on which we design every platform adaptation, and the reason we can prove performance instead of asserting it. We combine ARA with our own synchronised measurement rotors.

Company profile

ThingsOnAir develops and manufactures high-performance GNSS antennas for unmanned and mobile systems – in Germany. Our core product is the MGA1, a compact multiband antenna that we adapt to each platform: ground plane design, cable, connector, mounting position. More than 700 antennas have been delivered or integrated into UAV structures since 2016. Every adaptation is grounded in ARA (Antenna & Receiver Analyzer), our own measurement software: it compares antennas and receivers under real conditions and proves performance with data.
