FXP72.07.0053A Datasheet, PDF (10/12 Pages) Taoglas antenna solutions – RoHS Compliant

6. MOUNTING GUIDELINES
This versatile antenna design is suitable for cases where there is not enough space for
a thicker antenna. FXP72 can be right next to the device main board. This antenna
uses the device main board as a ground plane through a capacitive coupling effect and
keeping antenna characteristics.
The only restriction for this design is the radiated elements of the antenna must be free
of metal. In the next figure 12 is shown the minimum clearance necessary for the
antenna and on Figure 13 the non-desired main board shape on the antenna section.
The size of the ground plane used on the testing is 40X60 mm and was allocated as in
figure 12.
