Chip antennas
Chip antennas: miniature in size, friendly to use
Traditional chip antennas are so called monopole, where one end of chip
antenna is connected to the feed line and the other end is free. Unictron’s
chip antenna are designed as loop antennas, meaning that one end of chip
antenna is connected to the feed line and the other end is grounded. Besides
the loop design, our chip antennas consider frequency tuning element in the
layout. This unique feature resulted in trademark of TELA antenna. TELA
stands for Tuning Element Loop Antenna.
All chip antennas from Unictron are fairly omni-directional and developed to
be mounted with SMD technology.

Navigation antennas
Chip antenna’s break the traditional approach of implementing navigation
functionality of the wireless device. Even though the size is very small
compared to patch antennas, the navigation is still precise enough and fast

PCB/FPC antennas
PCB and FPC antennas are a great choice when there is not enough space on the mother
PCB for chip antenna. PCB and FPC are assembled with cable and connector according to
customers’ specification. The body includes double-sided tape, so the antenna can be
easily stuck on the surface inside or outside the housing.

Patch antennas
33
Patch antennas
Specialty of patch antennas is that they can be circularly polarized. Typical application is
the navigation system, where the signal coming from the satellites is of circular
polarization. Using patch antenna is very easy. Patch antenna has a pin going through the
ceramic body and through the mother PCB. This pin is soldered on the opposite side of
the PCB to the feed line. Patch antenna can be placed right over the metal elements and
doesn’t require any ground clear area.
Performance of the patch antenna will vary depends on the size of the PCB (ground).
When placed on different size of the PCB, or different position on the PCB (center vs.
corner), a shift of the central frequency may occur. The adjusting of the central frequency
is called tuning. Tuning requires modification of the top silver surface of the patch
antenna. This is usually done manually.
At Unictron we will gladly help you to tune the patch antenna on your device. Contact us
for more details.

Patch antennas
SMD type patch antennas are assembled on the PCB the same way as other passive
components. Therefore the variation of devices in mass production is minimized and
quality is consistent.

Frequency shift
There are many factors that may change the central frequency of the antenna. Besides the
size of the PCB (ground) and location on the PCB, the material of the plastic housing also
shifts antenna frequency.
When patch antenna is placed in the housing, the central frequency will move to lower
values. In other words, antenna needs to be tuned to higher frequency so that it works
properly once installed inside the housing.
36
Patch antennas
The best way of testing patch antennas is to test them tuned to the certain ground
plane. Feel free to request samples of SMD patch antennas on the ground plane (PCB).
Keep in mind that when the size of the PCB or position on the PCB will be changed,
patch antenna needs to be tuned again.
