Centurion Wireless Technologies (a unit of Laird Technologies) announces its NanoAnt miniature antenna technology that offers system designers a very small-sized antenna with good performance, and implementation flexibility for a variety of wireless applications. The NanoAnt antenna technology can operate from 1.575 up to 6 GHz enabling global positioning systems (GPS), Bluetooth, wireless LAN (WLAN) 802.11a/b/g, 802.11n MIMO, public safety band and other device functionalities. The antenna is designed for high-volume surface mount attachment through the use of pick-and-place processing, and does not require a ground connection. With this product, some applications do not require a keep-out space or clearance area. The NanoAnt design is comprised of a metal radiating element insert molded into a high-temperature support structure designed with two legs. One of the legs acts as a radio frequency feed and the other is used for mechanical attachment. Various matching circuits are available from the company, and are application dependent.
