Leica AR10

Product catalog summary

Overview
The Leica AR10 is a high-performance GNSS reference station antenna designed for both permanent and mobile base station applications. It offers near choke-ring level performance with reduced weight, size, and cost. The antenna features a new design with a large ground plane and integrated radome, ensuring exceptional signal tracking, phase center accuracy, and multipath suppression.

Integrated Radome
The integrated radome prevents snow build-up, which can degrade signal quality. Its non-spherical design discourages birds from perching, reducing signal attenuation. The aerodynamic shape minimizes wind loading, and its lightweight construction allows for versatile mounting options.

Durability
The AR10 is built with a robust, UV-resistant enclosure to withstand extreme environmental conditions, including temperature, humidity, dust, salt, solar radiation, pollution, shock, and vibration.

Performance
The AR10 features wideband tracking technology for superior low elevation tracking, multipath suppression, and phase center accuracy across all frequency bands. A new low noise amplifier (LNA) provides low measurement noise and excellent out-of-band rejection, reducing interference from jamming. It supports antenna cable lengths up to 70 meters without an in-line amplifier.

Future Proofing
Designed to accommodate emerging satellite systems like Galileo and BeiDou, the AR10 supports all existing and planned signals from GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, and various L-band augmentation systems, aligning with Leica Geosystems' "future proof" philosophy.

Leica AR10 Future Proof GNSS Infrastructure Integrated Radome Thanks to the integrated radome, the AR10 prevents build-up of snow which could otherwise degrade signal quality. The non-spherical radome is designed for optimal signal quality and has the added benefit of discouraging birds from perching on the antenna, a common source of signal attenuation with rounded radomes. The aerodynamic shape of the antenna reduces wind loading and together with the light weight ensures that the AR10 can be used with a variety of antenna masts or as a field or campaign base on a tripod.
