Internal antenna reference design with module along PCB edge  

When using the ANNA-B4 together with this antenna reference design, the circuit trace layout must 
be made in strict compliance with the instructions below. This section describes where the critical 
copper traces are positioned on the reference design. 

Figure 31

 shows the top layer for the edge version of the internal antenna reference design.
