Technical illustration: Broadband / UWB antennas

CUSTOM DEVELOPMENT

Broadband and UWB antennas for a wide usable frequency range.

We develop broadband antennas for wireless, measurement and positioning systems. Vivaldi, log-periodic and planar structures are designed for bandwidth, directivity, polarisation and installation requirements.

01 / TECHNOLOGY & DEVELOPMENT

Choosing the antenna type for the application

A broadband receiving antenna, a directional measurement antenna and a compact UWB antenna have different priorities. We design the geometry around the required frequency range and spatial coverage.

02 / TECHNOLOGY & DEVELOPMENT

Broadband feeding and integration

The coaxial connection and transition to the antenna structure must work across the entire operating range. We account for transmission-line routing, balancing and the effects of the cable and mounting arrangement.

03 / TECHNOLOGY & DEVELOPMENT

Checking frequency-dependent performance

We define the usable bandwidth through the agreed performance criteria. A low S11 over a wide range alone does not establish whether gain, polarisation and radiation pattern suit the application.

THREE ROUTES TO THE RIGHT SOLUTION

Develop a new design. Optimise an existing solution. Customise products.

01

New development

We develop the geometry, circuit and integration around your frequency bands, installation conditions and measurable performance targets.

02

Optimisation

We analyse existing samples and documentation, identify the causes of losses or insufficient performance, and implement targeted changes.

03

Product customisation

We assess an existing Sevskiy solution and adapt its frequency tuning, connectors or installation. We can undertake volume production on request.

OUR APPROACH

From requirements to a tested design.

  1. 01

    Requirements and interfaces

    We clarify the frequency plan, available space, mechanical environment, supply, connections and test criteria. Existing CAD data, schematics and measurements are included in the assessment.

  2. 02

    Design and simulation

    We compare suitable concepts, design the circuit or geometry, and simulate critical electromagnetic structures and transitions.

  3. 03

    Prototypes and measurement-based refinement

    We build prototypes, measure under defined conditions and refine the design by comparing the model with the actual assembly.

  4. 04

    Design approval and volume production

    We document the agreed configuration and test plan. Production support and volume manufacturing are agreed as required.

YOUR DELIVERABLES

Technically documented and ready for the next development step.

You receive a broadband antenna design with a defined operating range, feed and integration guidance. We also assess whether an existing Sevskiy broadband antenna can be adapted.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Technical questions about working with us.

Are broadband and UWB the same thing?

Broadband describes a large usable frequency range. UWB refers to a particular system application or signal bandwidth. The antenna must suit the frequency plan and requirements of the specific UWB system.

Can you adjust directivity and polarisation?

Yes. We design the radiator geometry, feed and, where appropriate, multiple antenna elements accordingly and evaluate performance across the required frequency range.

YOUR RF REQUIREMENTS

Developing the right antenna and RF solution together.

We work with you to determine whether a new design, optimisation or product customisation is the right approach.
