With the emergence of the Internet of Things (IoT), the system of uniquely identified interconnected devices that are enabled to transmit and share data over wireless networks, technological advances are needed to create a safer, sustainable, more productive and connected future. As IoT growth has been fueled by technology, it also has been facilitated by the strength of other technological advancements.
Antennas are critical to transmitting and receiving radio frequencies (RF) and along with filter and power amplifiers, must work adeptly with fiber optic and cloud-based technologies. They must also enable near limitless wireless connectivity between devices and databases, while at the same handle high-power signals and operate within stringent thermal
conditions. These are functionalities all critical to the development of an IoT application and performance of a smart environment.
Antennas play a complex role in the dynamics of the IoT. As IoT ecosystems move to support high-density, low latency networks and continue to incorporate various new features into radios and overall system layouts, there is an even greater premium put on antenna system design.
View the following antenna solutions that are an integral component in the creation of IoT applications:
- Standard and Custom Antennas for IoT
- Wi-Fi 6/6E Triple Band Antennas
- Emergency Service MiMo Antenna
