Custom Antenna Design Solutions
Custom antenna design is necessary for any product, whether you’re developing a compact Bluetooth headset or an intricate 5G antenna system for the latest smartphone, our team of expert engineers is here to make it happen.
From the first simulation to final integration, we’ll work with you to ensure every requirement is met.
Innovation
Our core strength is our innovative personnel, who combine long experience with eagerness to learn new. We believe that collaborative teamwork creates the ideal environment for innovative antenna solutions. Custom antenna design requires the right skills and tools.
Speed
Modern antenna design involves hundreds of simulation rounds. Efficient simulation-assisted design methods allow us to tune and evaluate multiple antenna solutions simultaneously. This means we can choose the ideal technology for your product.
Over-the-Air Requirements
Our simulation tools allow the OTA performance of a product to be estimated early in the product development process. We design custom antennas so that they fulfill operators’ requirements and comply with SAR regulations.
Simulation Accuracy
When simulations are carried out properly, it cuts the number of prototype rounds and the overall device development time, and why is that?
Firstly, there is no need for mechanical or PCB changes due to antenna performance issues. Secondly, because all the antennas work optimally after the build, other areas can be tested without the need to wait for the antenna designers to get the antennas working first.
Getting good correspondence between simulations and measurement results is not trivial. We make use of our experience and expertise to model the critical parts with sufficient precision while keeping the simulation time reasonably short. With the help of simulation tools we are able to create the best possible custom antenna design for your needs.
Virtual Lab
Speed is critical in today’s competitive landscape. That’s why we have developed our virtual lab, that allow us to test and optimize design iterations in real time.
Accelerated Creation Cycle
This means you can bring your product to market faster, without compromising on your products connectivity. Our every decision is backed by data, so you can move forward with confidence, knowing you’re on the right path.
Data analysis by UrPo
We have developed a in-house custom post-processing tool called UrPo for data analysis and over-the-air (OTA) estimates.
