Antenova has introduced a new ultra-compact dual-band antenna for Wi-Fi 802.11n and ac 2.4-2.5GHz and 4.9-5.9GHz bands. The company said that the Mutica antenna is designed to fit into the reduced ground plane of the host PCB, making it ideal for small Wi-Fi products and wireless accessories that are being produced today.
Mutica is an SMD-mounted antenna suitable for all dual-band Wi-Fi applications, especially those that require high-speed data transmission and multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) applications, such as security cameras, cameras, set-top boxes and devices for networking vehicle. Its specifications also apply to Wi-Fi access points, portable electronic devices, headsets, PC cards, game consoles, network devices and wearable electronic devices.
"In 2014, 2.4 billion Wi-Fi-enabled devices were sold worldwide, and by early 2015, the industry had accumulated more than 10 billion Wi-Fi devices," said Colin Newman, Antenova's director of sales and vice president. "More than half of the products shipped are dual-band 2.4GHz / 5GHz, and the market is expected to grow further in the next five years, making 802.11ac a mainstream WLAN standard. 5Ghz 802.11ac provides higher-definition video streams than 2.4GHz. With more channels and less interference. The high efficiency of the Mutica antenna will help support faster data rates, fewer disconnects and longer battery life for portable devices. "
Antenova's antenna design The method is called "Integrated Design" (DFI). Since the antenna is always embedded in the customer's product, Antenova designed it so that RF components can be easily added to the customer's design, so that the antenna will provide excellent performance when placed on a PCB. .
