Measures against in-band interference include:
 Maintaining a good grounding concept in the design
 Shielding
 Layout optimization
 Filtering
 Placement of the GNSS antenna
 Adding a CDMA, cellular, WCDMA band pass filter before handset antenna
Out-band interference
Out-band interference is caused by signal frequencies that are different from the GNSS carrier (see Figure 16).
The main sources are wireless communication systems such as cellular, CDMA, WCDMA, Wi-Fi, BT, etc.
Figure 16: Out-band interference signals
Measures against out-band interference include maintaining a good grounding concept in the design and
adding a SAW or band pass ceramic filter (as recommend in section 4) into the antenna input line to the GNSS
receiver (see Figure 17).
