Integrated antennas design for IoT devices
summary
Shows an IM880 module integrated antenna workflow from 3D EM simulation through prototyping and chamber measurement and back to retuning. Demonstrates a matched PCB antenna using lumped matching parts, measures 61% efficiency and 1.2 dBi gain in anechoic chamber, and documents resonance shifts when PCB size, metal surfaces, or plastic housings change. Gives concrete fixes: matching networks, bandwidth tradeoffs, or reconfigurable tuning rather than vague design advice.
