Ceramic high-performance diversity antennas also small

7 March 2007 Telecoms, Datacoms, Wireless, IoT

Pulse has introduced a new line of high-performance ceramic diversity antennas. These antennas enable high-data-rate transmission yet are small enough to fit in mobile terminals such as new-generation phones, notebook computers, PDAs, and other wireless devices. Their ceramic composition provides a high degree of signal immunity, enabling them to be placed close to other antennas for high-performance diversity operation in small devices. Using diversity antennas in close proximity enables them to be switched within microseconds if one antenna experiences noise, providing improved signal quality with fewer drop-outs.

The series consists of six products: the 850 MHz RX, 900 MHz RX, 1,8 GHz RX, 1,9 GHz RX, 2,1 GHz RX, and 2,4 GHz RX. The light-weight omnidirectional radiation antennas feature low profiles and compact sizes. Sizes are 10 x 3,2 x 2 mm (w x l x h) and 310 mg for the 1,8 , 1,9 , and 2,1 GHz antennas, 10 x 3,2 x 4 mm and 600 mg for the 850 and 900 MHz, and 3,2 x 1,6 x 1,1 mm and 33 mg for the 2,4 GHz antennas.

They are RoHS-compliant and are compatible with lead-free, surface mount processes.
