When it comes to actual antennas in the real world, much of our knowledge is empirical. We know very broadly theories that explain how a point charge radiates (Maxwell’s equations), the need for ...

The need for what’s called antenna tuning—either by adjusting the antenna itself or via a matching circuit between power-amplifier output and the antenna—is almost as old as wireless itself. Even in ...

STMicroelectronics has extended its range of single-chip antenna-matching ICs that simplify RF-circuit design with two new devices optimised for BlueNRG-LPS system-on-chip ICs (SoCs) and STM32WB1x and ...

What is impedance matching? Applications of impedance matching. Impedance matching and design considerations. Impedance (Z) matching is an essential part of most RF circuit design. Regardless of what ...

Remcom has announced its new Circuit Element Optimizer for XFdtd electromagnetic simulation software, which optimizes matching circuits for several antennas serving multiple bands simultaneously.

Embedded antennas, also known as chip antennas, or SMD (surface mount design) antennas, are used in on-board devices, small trackers, remote monitoring, Femto/PICO base stations, point of sale ...
