Designing antennas for compact devices is never straightforward. As PCBs shrink, so does the ground plane and with it comes challenges around efficiency, bandwidth and stable performance. For engineers working on IoT sensors, wearables, and other space-constrained products, antenna integration can make or break connectivity.
In this guide, we break down why the ground plane matters, the pitfalls of miniaturised designs and the best practices to manage detuning, interference and layout constraints. You’ll also find practical strategies for component placement, early testing and antenna selection to help your device pass OTA requirements and deliver reliable wireless performance in the real world.
