ANTENNA DESIGN
You’re only as good as your antenna! Spectrum will help you make the important decision of whether to use an off-the-shelf antenna or go with a custom design based on performance and cost objectives.

Off-the-shelf antennas typically have lower development costs. Spectrum can help you with the following tasks:
- Antenna comparison and selection
- Antenna placement within your product
- Antenna tuning to your product and use cases
- Certification assistance
Custom antennas typically have higher development costs but have the following advantages:
- Lower BOM cost – pennies for a custom antenna integrated into your PCB
- Best possible efficiencies – tuned specifically for your product
- Ability to meet difficult size and esthetic constraints
- You own the design for future projects
- Most Spectrum antenna development is done on a guaranteed fixed cost basis
