Title: Moteino trace antenna
Post by: markus1234 on February 01, 2023, 12:05:07 PM
Hi,
im currently evaluating different pcb trace antenna designs.
I have found that there is also a moteino with a trace antenna.

Would it be possible to get the antenna eagle .lbr file or the .brd  of the board?

Has anyone testet this trace antenna design? (are there performance characteristics?)

Thanks in advance

The design is proprietary, unfortunately I do not have any detailed performance characteristics.
I can tell you it was tested in industrial environments and it performed very well in several hundred feet of range with dense metal/machinery. A dipole was used at the gateway end: https://lowpowerlab.com/shop/product/193
Other than that in open air the performance is expected to be even better.
