GPS Antenna and Internal GPS Receiver
The GPS utilizes signals from Global Positioning System (GPS)
satellite constellation and Satellite-Based Augmentation Systems
(SBAS). The Lynx NGT-9000 has an internal GPS function that pro-
vides position, velocity, time and integrity (NIC, NAC etc) information
to the applications. The antenna is located on the top of the aircraft.
L-Band Antenna
The L-Band antenna is used by the Lynx NGT-9000 to receive
1030MHz, receive and transmit 1090MHz and receive 978MHz. It is
located on the bottom of the aircraft.
A second L-Band antenna is installed on the top of the aircraft for
models with Diversity. Installations with both TAS and Diversity
options can use the TAS directional antenna instead of the second
L-Band antenna.
