Range
The antenna choice and position directly controls the system range. Keep it clear of other metal
in the system. The best position by far, is protruding vertically from the top of the product. This
is often not desirable for practical reasons and thus a compromise may be needed. Note that the
space around the antenna is as important as the antenna itself. All radio systems are dependant
on a radio signal being received through airspace.
The range quoted is the optimal in direct line of sight without obstacles and in good atmospheric
conditions.
Range is affected by many things, for example local environmental conditions, atmospheric condi-
tions, interference from other radio transmitters. For evaluating the local environment please see
our RF Meter (DS006)
In very worse case applications the range quoted may be reduced dramatically below
the optimal range stated.
Recommended Antenna 868MHz
The BEAD Antenna provides a Miniature PCB mounting solution
where performance is required from a small space .
Available as straight or 90 degree mount this antenna is a general
purpose omni-directional. Please see Datasheet ANT-BEAD-868
