    High Frequency Matching Network

    thread247-237287 In the previous thread (linked above because it's now closed), I asked a question about matching network design. I had been using a temporary short to measure the electrical delay. biff44 said this... "Certainly above 2.5 GHz, I would use a more accurate method than just...

    Antenna Design Book

    Our company designs wearable computers that connect to a WiFi network. We mainly use PCB traces for the antenna (inverted F's). Up to now, we have been outsourcing the antenna design. We now want to do the designs in house. Does anybody have a recommendation of a book for designing PCB...

    Dual Band Antenna Matching

    Hi, We are looking at using a dual band chip antenna for a mobile device. When the antenna is put into our device, it is slightly mismatched at both bands (2.4/5GHz). So I need a matching network. However, if I design a network to match one band, it has a negative impact on the other band...

    Antenna Measurements

    Hi, I have a question on measuring gain/efficiency. We use antennas in a plastic housing, and we would like to see how different changes affect the gain/efficiency of the antenna. Currently all we have is an Agilent 8714ET 2-port Vector Network Analyzer, which we use to measure the VSWR...

    Matching Network Design

    Hi, I am new to antennas, so this is a fairly basic question. I am trying to design a matching network for a 2.4GHz chip antenna. I use a vector network analyzer to measure the antenna's impedance with no matching network. I then use software to design the matching network, and I lay out...
