Custom Antenna For Wearables
Wearables like smart glasses, smartwatches, health rings, and headphones have seamlessly become an essential part of our daily lives. At the core of all these innovations lies one critical element: connectivity. And at the heart of connectivity? Antenna design.
Custom antenna design for wearables presents unique challenges: compact size, near-body use cases, and the demand for flawless performance. These devices are beautifully crafted on the outside, but behind every sleek industrial design are countless hours of simulation and testing in measurement chambers.
Our antenna engineers ensure that connectivity is never compromised, overcoming the toughest technical hurdles to bring wearables to life, because great design is only as powerful as the technology that supports it.
We Design For Use Cases
Wearable antennas present unique engineering challenges due to the human body’s impact on electromagnetic waves. The body absorbs energy, converting it into heat and significantly altering antenna performance. Antennas designed for free-space often experience drastic efficiency drops in wearable use cases. Understanding and addressing these proximity effects is critical for achieving reliable performance in real-world applications.

Antenna Integration for Wearables
Designing antennas for wearable devices comes with unique obstacles:
- Space Constraints: Wearables are ultra-compact, with every millimeter shared by batteries, sensors, and processors. Antennas must fit seamlessly without causing EMC or RF interference.
- Body Interference: The human body, being conductive, disrupts signals, leading to degradation. Engineers tackle this with innovative designs that ensure stable connectivity despite the “body effect.”
- Frequency Complexity: Wearables operate across Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, cellular, GPS, and UWB, all packed into tight spaces. Managing crosstalk and ensuring multi-band performance requires advanced tuning and isolation techniques.
Success lies in balancing transmission power (TRP) and sensitivity (TIS) to ensure reliable real-world performance. Through precise simulation, placement, and testing, we create antennas that excel, keeping devices connected anytime, anywhere.
