fig congress 2018 - Evaluation of the accuracy and performance of GPS-GNSS antennas

Atinc Pirti, Ramazan Gursel Hosbas, Ercenk Ata

The antenna type and characteristics are important factors for precise height positioning in GPS. This feature is very important because the antenna has the ability to receive GPS signals. There are various antennas designed for different geodetic applications. This article covers several aspects of the GPS antenna design and performance to consider when using them on the field. Today, GPS heightening is considered as an alternative to conventional terrestrial height surveying methods. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of the GPS antenna to determine the accuracy of the height component in different scenarios designed to perform survey performance. It is also included in this study to investigate GPS heightening accuracy using different antennas by replacing the antenna height.
