DATASHEET:
Overview
The GLI-METRO-RK GPS repeater kit from GPS Source is a complete GPS amplifier system that includes: METRO amplifier, active antenna, passive antenna, swivel mount, pole mount, surge suppressor and cabling. The METRO-RK achieves the integration of the latest GPS smart amplifier technology into a self-contained unit.
A smart amplifier system, with a simple user interface, it is perfect for the commercial and public sector. It can help anyone working in an automated test environment or in a shielded room, safely bring the GPS signal inside.
Derived from high performance systems for military applications, the METRO device features L1 GPS Signals (optional L2 for approved applications) and oscillation detection/mitigation.
With the METRO RK, the user has control over effective radiated power (ERP) levels. This is regardless of the uncertain loss or gain in the receive antenna cable network. It is smart enough to automatically condition the signal and prevent changes in performance.
The METRO GPS system prevents system oscillation that can occur as a result of improper installation or operation. If the METRO detects oscillation, it will independently reduce the system gain. Even if the METRO is improperly installed or operated incorrectly, it will still prevent system oscillation.
The METRO “smart” GPS amplifier will identify and isolate the following:
- Oscillation condition
- High gain
- Low gain
- Short/Open circuit
- Internal component failure
- Less than four satellites
- No satellites with adequate signal
