Quectel Wireless Solutions, a global IoT solutions provider, today introduced four additions to its extensive range of global navigation satellite system (GNSS) antennas. The new antennas include the YFGD000AA , a high-precision, low-profile antenna covering all GNSS bands; the YFGD000BA , optimized for triple-band solutions in GNSS L1, L2, and L5; the lightweight, high-precision YFGN000H1AC antenna also covering all GNSS bands; and the YEGT010W1AM , designed for general-purpose reception in low-precision applications.

Quectel’s tri-band and all-band antennas are specifically designed to maximize performance with the latest generation of RTK GNSS modules. These include the dual-band LC29H module , designed for cost-conscious but precision-critical applications; the industrial-grade LG290P module , which delivers centimeter-level accuracy with sub-five-second RTK fix times; and the flagship LG580P , which adds L6 support and dual-antenna heading, making it the ideal solution for ADAS, robotics, and autonomous systems. Complementing the hardware, Quectel’s global RTK correction service leverages a network of over 21,000 base stations to provide consistent centimeter-level accuracy worldwide. This ensures seamless coverage across Asia, Europe, North America, and beyond, and enables true scalability for industries such as agriculture, logistics, and automotive.

“Our goal is to provide engineers, developers, and device designers with the maximum number of options so they can create optimized designs for the next generation of GNSS devices,” explained David Wei, Senior Product Manager of the Antenna Products Department at Quectel Wireless Solutions. “With these new antennas, we have GNSS options that span GNSS systems, frequency bands, form factors, operating temperature ranges, and compliance with industry requirements. Combined with our RTK GNSS modules, RTK correction services, and antenna design support services, Quectel can become your exclusive GNSS solutions provider.”

The YFGD000AA is a high-performance multi-band active GNSS antenna designed for professional applications requiring ultra-precise positioning on the L1, L2, L5, L6 and L-band frequencies (1164-1300 MHz and 1525-1606 MHz). Measuring 78.6 mm x 75.6 mm x 16.2 mm and featuring screw mounting, the antenna is suitable for fixed or vehicle installations and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. Combining exceptional signal sensitivity with high durability, this antenna is designed for critical applications in autonomous systems, geodetic surveying and high-precision navigation. It is RoHS, REACH and POPS compliant.

The YFGD000BA offers similar capabilities to the YFGD000AA, but has been developed to support professional applications with ultra-precise positioning needs in the L1, L2, and L5 bands (1164–1238 MHz and 1559–1606 MHz). It shares dimensions, operating temperature range, and mounting options with the YFGD000AA and is also RoHS, REACH, and POP compliant. Both the YFGD000AA and YFGD000BA can support high-precision RTK despite their compact size.

The YFGN000H1AC is a high-precision antenna with a taller profile than the YFGD000AA and YFGD000BA, but with higher performance and a lighter weight of 62g. The antenna covers all GNSS bands, ensuring worldwide compatibility. It offers a gain of 35 ±4 dB with a low noise figure of ≤4 dB, making it suitable for weak signal environments such as urban canyons or dense foliage. With a diameter of 122 mm and a height of 22.5 mm, the antenna is screw-mounted and can be anchored to vehicles or fixed installations. It operates in a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and is compliant with RoHS and REACH regulations. Upon request, Quectel can supply housings to convert the antenna from an internal to an external configuration.

Finally, the YEGT010W1AM is an external rubber GNSS antenna with a diameter of 10.22 mm and a height of 69.5 mm. This ultra-wideband GNSS antenna provides broad coverage from 1559 to 1606 MHz and features an SMA male connector at its end. With omnidirectional capability and linear polarization, the YEGT010W1AM is ideal for general-purpose reception in low-accuracy applications, especially where signal direction varies.

The terminal-mount design, with a compact and rugged form factor, facilitates installation in gateways, routers, or tracking devices in protected environments. Operating in a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, the antenna weighs 8.9g and is RoHS compliant. Additionally, the antenna's universal joint design allows customers to easily adjust the polarization direction, helping to mitigate the angle sensitivity typically encountered with linearly polarized antennas in real-world applications, thereby improving overall signal stability.

In addition to antennas, Quectel offers comprehensive antenna design support services, including simulation, testing, and manufacturing of customized antenna solutions to meet the specific needs of developers and designers. Quectel maintains regional R&D centers around the world to provide rapid response to customer needs. By combining Quectel's GNSS modules, high-performance antennas, and global RTK correction services, customers can enjoy a complete 360° ecosystem that minimizes integration risk and accelerates time to market.

Nepcon Vietnam attendees will be able to discover Quectel's latest GNSS solutions at booth S26 at ICE Hanoi, where the company will also showcase its full product range and conduct live demonstrations of its customers' devices.
