Welcome to the Area Antennas of the Department RF and Microwave Design

The application areas of antennas have become a lot more diverse with the advantages of wireless communication. Depending on the application, the development requirements can vary significantly. Thus completely different specifications form the basis for omnidirectional antennas in handhelds compared to satellite reception antennas with high antenna gain.

Also the environment has relevant influence on the layout and characteristics of the individual antenna. In order to ensure optimal function, for instance in case of an UHF RFID tag, which is to be attached to metal, the conductive environment has to be taken into consideration right from the planning stage. As independent antenna developers, we offer customer-tailored advice and antenna design as well as the development of specific solutions from prototype to small-batch production. Moreover, we use different procedures of antenna measuring techniques and distribute finished, licensable products.

Our antennas are developed for different applications and used primarily in the following areas:

  • Localization and Navigation
  • Mobile Radio Communication and Wireless Networks
  • Satellite Broadcasting
  • Antennas for Near Body Communication
  • RFID Technology
