In summary, the overall performance of the chip antenna is dependent on the entire PCB layout.  Impedance matching, position relative to adjacent components, and the ground planes can all affect antenna performance.  Design engineers must use care when creating a circuit layout which includes a chip antenna.  Here are the fundamental steps for proper design utilizing a chip antenna: First, determine the antenna location on the board. Second, select the most suitable antenna model to be implemented on the board. Finally, implement the antenna (with matching components, if necessary) in conformance with design rules. Johanson Technology will evaluate custom antenna needs based on production volume, timing, and performance requirements. Thank you for listening to this antenna tutorial.
