Antenova released its first antenna for consumer applications, and what it believed to be the smallest antenna in the world at just 1,00 x 0,5 x 0,5 mm. The Weii is a miniature ceramic antenna for all 2,4 GHz, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Zigbee and ISM applications, and is resistant to detuning from environmental effects. The fact that it is powerful over indoor ranges and performs well when sited close to the human body make the antenna ideal for small electronic devices like wearables, headsets, medical devices, PNDs, dongles and sensors.
Antenova takes a unique approach to the design of antennas, which it calls ‘Design For Integration’ (DFI). Because the antennas are always embedded within a customer’s design, the successful operation of the customer’s device depends upon obtaining the correct performance from the antenna when it is placed on the PCB, therefore Antenova is designing its antennas with this difficult RF integration in mind.
The Weii is designed to be easily integrated into all kinds of PCB designs and various ground plane sizes – it has been engineered so that it can simply be dropped into the design, using CAD footprint files which are provided free of charge. To ensure that customers can harness the antenna successfully and achieve optimal performance, Antenova provides engineering assistance along with advice on RF design layout and the integration of the antenna, and customer support.
