RF Antenna Services
We focus on providing high-performance, custom designs optimized for end-users' specific applications. All design work is performed with the goal of repeatable, cost-effective manufacturing.
Our custom antenna and passive RF component design work includes the following:
- Integrating the custom RF components into the radio's PCB or as a standalone device
- Single and multi-board solutions with multiple antennas: created on the same PCB/Kim enclosure
- High-performance, cost-effective arrays for challenging RF link budgets
- Material evaluation for DK and DF performance using custom RF test fixtures
- Prototype fabrication and evaluation
