2 Description
A10464 is designed to be mounted in either corner of a PCB by means of a robust screw-in
fixing ideal for M2M application. The design allows an SMT GSM/GPRS module to occupy
part of the space under the antenna, allowing an optimal use of the space on the host PCB.
The antenna is not symmetric, and therefore performance when mounted on left and right
corner is slightly different, with a little advantage in the left corner position.
A10464 uses the host PCB ground plane in order to radiate efficiently and so its
performance depend also on the size and design of the host PCB; a minimum PCB length
of 100mm is recommended, although the antenna works on smaller PCBs, with
performance decreasing with PCB size. The ground plane extends under the antenna, but
for optimal performance a 3mm ground clearance strip along the edge of the PCB in
correspondence of the antenna is recommended.
The antenna uses a matching circuit to achieve optimized results for the specific frequency
bands that are required, and the resonant frequency of the antenna can be adjusted using
an additional component to compensate for the effect of nearby objects like a plastic cover.
This product specification shows the performance of the antenna on an Antenova
reference board, A10464-U1, when optimized to cover a typical quad-band reception:
GSM850/900/1800/1900.
