Antenova’s Invicta is a compact and efficient antenna for the Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and ZigBee frequencies at 2.4–2.5 GHz. The antenna averages efficiency of 70% across the 2.4 GHz band, so that designs using the antenna will operate well over long distances and through walls and obstacles, thus extending the coverage and performance of wireless devices using Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and ZigBee.
The product is a flexible printed circuit (FPC) antenna, which is easy to place in a design. It connects directly to the PCB via a cable and IPX MHF (UFL) connector. The antenna comes with 100 mm cable as standard and other cable lengths and connector options are available on request.
An FPC antenna is different to an SMD antenna in that it operates independent to a ground plane length and no antenna matching is required, so the design cycle is simple and short. An FPC antenna also makes for easy manufacturing, as the antenna is fixed in place by a simple self-adhesive strip and can be curved and inserted into the case of a design. This style of antenna is suited to small- to medium-volume manufacturing.
The antenna has been designed primarily for smart battery-powered devices for the home and office, where one single device provides global coverage. Typical applications in the home would be smart meters, home automation, wireless sensor networks and smoke and intruder alarms. It would also be used for remote monitoring in industrial and medical environments.
