An optimized antenna is essential to ensure the radiated performance of a connected device, which directly impacts the communication range. This range is a key metric from both system and user perspectives, defined as the maximum distance at which a reliable radio link can be maintained.
Radiated performance is closely linked to the antenna’s integration environment. That’s why antenna design must begin at the earliest stages of product development, by specifying the antenna type (printed, wired, SMD, etc.), the space allocated to it, and its optimal location within the device housing, in relation to other components such as the PCB, battery, and internal wiring.
Our experienced engineers are ready to support you in selecting and integrating a standard or custom antenna design that meets your specific application constraints.
In collaboration with our qualified partners, we also offer comprehensive testing and measurement services in anechoic chambers. These include antenna performance characterization (gain, radiation pattern, etc.) as well as radiated emission analysis (power, harmonics, spurious signals), under nominal free-field conditions.
Too often, antennas are defined at the end of the project based solely on the space remaining inside the enclosure. This late-stage integration frequently results in poor radiated performance that fails to meet the required specifications and the communication range expected by both the system and end users.
