In order to save development and approval costs, the antenna, frequency bands, ground plane size and housing should be carefully designed at the beginning of development. If the company lacks in-house experience with radio, antennas and worldwide approval, we recommend consulting an external consultant. The following text is intended to make you think. I use […]
If an RF signal is transmitted to an antenna, a part of the signal will be reflected. The return loss in the antenna data sheet indicates how much energy is reflected by the antenna. For mobile radio antennas, for LTE Cat-NB1, GSM, UMTS or LTE, a return loss of -6 dB at the band ends […]
This is an example of a typical design process with the various steps leading to a ready-to-use wireless IoT product. Step 1 – Read the IoT/M2M Cookbook The IoT / M2M Cookbook is intended to help developers of wireless IoT / M2M devices to save some time and perhaps to provide some inspiring ideas to […]
Internal knowledge about integrated antennas If you lack knowledge about integrated antennas, then we would recommend that you use an external consultant with experience in antennas who can advise you impartially on antenna selection. In the context of my work as a Sales Director, this basic consulting can usually be done free of charge. A […]
In 60 minutes, we’ll explain antenna design basics. Questions during the presentation are welcome as well as at the end of the presentation when I have allowed time for questions and answers.
As many people have asked for a video stream of my presentation, I am now publishing the presentation with text. This will take a while to complete, but I have made a start with slides 7 to 9 published in my blog. Self Made Embedded Antenna Designs versus Chip Antenna My name is Harald Naumann […]
Slide 7, 8 and 9 from our lecture “Self Made Embedded Antenna Design versus Chip Antenna” The following applications are representative of those adopted by many of our satisfied customers. We are not yet authorized to show some of them, but we will reveal more details in due course, and many applications will become public […]
There is no reference for antennas on extremely small boards in small packages. Cellular chip antennas of different manufacturers all have a reference ground plane of approx. 45 mm +/- 10 mm x 100 mm +/- 20 mm. Nobody can cheat the physics. The length of the PCB influences the return loss. This is documented […]
As the question about the costs and the procedure for the matching of antennas frequently occurs, we have described the process and explained it with some examples of projects. To estimate the costs, the answers to the following questions are necessary. Standard questions on antenna matching: Which radio modules were used? How many radio modules […]
15th. November 2018, Munich, Germany Time 17:00 – 18:00 Session/Workshop Speaker: Roger Denker, MegiQ BV Language: English Registration (soon): https://www.wireless-congress.com/home.html In 60 minutes you will learn how easy it is to use a PC-based Vector Network Analyser (VNA) made by MegiQ. Examples to be presented at the Antenna Tutorial Part 1 will include live measurements […]
