Antenna design for multiband Wi-Fi
Whats special about wi-fi antenna design
WI-FI is an essential feature of many modern devices and technology is moving forward to achieve even faster data throughput and coverage. For the antenna, this means at least dual-band frequency 2.4GHz & 5GHz and often multi-antenna solution for MIMO operation. With the latest additions in WI-FI 7 frequency range is extended to 7GHz range. WI-FI standards also extend all the way to a 60GHz band.
Many of the same challenges present with cellular antennas and MIMO are here as well. Space requirement is considerably less than only 2.4GHz and higher frequencies are needed. However, with higher frequencies such as 60GHz same challenges as with 5G mmWave antennas emerge.
Multiband antennas
Wi-fi antennas typically cover multiple frequency bands which makes the antenna design and matching more complex.
Higher frequency
If you are coming from 2,4GHz or lower frequencies the extra attentioin to details needed for 5GHz and higher frequencies can suprise you.
MIMO and beamforming
To maximize the througput and range of wi-fi system advanced techniques such as MIMO and beamforming can be used. Both of these create more parameters to optimise for antenna designer.

We offer antenna design services for full product development projects from feasibility studies through different design stages to consultancy at mass production phase. Our antenna simulations are critical at reaching accurate performance forecast in early stages of development enabling informed decisions before manufacturing of prototypes. Simulation enable us to use our extensive know how in product integration to find new innovative antenna solutions. We can measure TRP in anechoic chamber when your device has been configured to transmit carrier wave signal (CWS) at maximum power. This means that our power meter will test the transmitted power to each direction and results are integrated to generate the combined total power.
