page 2 of 24 the dtad.01.a.50 is an evaluation board for taoglas new patent pending series of evolution dta tunable antennas. dta antennas deliver higher effciency on smaller ground-plane than traditional passive antennas, enabling a new miniaturized generation of high performance wireless devices. typical applications would be 3g on board diagnostic (obdii) devices in automotive, medical telemetry devices, 4g dongles, access points and routers. the board contains a surface-mount ceramic antenna dta.01, a tunable capacitor pe64102 dune? (32 state capacitance) from peregrine semiconductor and a matching circuit. via a usb connection to the board, the antenna frequency response is shifted via a command from a pc with peregrine supplied software and driver. the antenna parameters itself can be measured via the on-board sma connector. a new generation of m2m devices with as little as a 50mm ground-plane in length can now achieve wide frequency coverage and higher data rates with bandwidth beating any passive antenna in the market with the same footprint and volume. the dtad.01.a.50 board (60.50x45mm) with ground plane size of 50x45 mm can perform effciently at a bandwidth from 698-960 mhz and from 1710-2170 mhz, covering all worldwide cellular 3g/4g bands in a tiny form factor. in combination with your devices microprocessor it has the ability to dynamically improve the effciency of a given antenna band in real time. using a combination of the dta.01 and the pe64102 we can cover the entire bandwidth for 3g and 4g cellular bands. using the state 03 (2.58 pf) we can cover the 700/850/1800/1900 and 2100 mhz band only and with the state 13 (6.52) pf we can cover a penta-band solution 850/900/1800/1900 and 2100 mhz. the optimal states will change depending on the ground-plane, devices board and mechanical environment. please download the peregrines full set of support information. see our full links in the appendix at the end of the document. the dtad01 board with a ground plane of 50x45 mm has not been designed with the intention of passing the cellular carriers minimum requirements. the integration is to achieve the maximum performance possible in the smallest form factor. 1. introduction spe-13-8-041/b/rc |

page 12 of 24 8. transmission line figure 17. co-planar waveguide follow the below transmission line dimensions for optimal performance. dimensions w = 0.8 mm, g = 0.3 mm, h = 21 mils, t = 0.36 mm dielectric constant er = 4.4 the dimension of the ground aside of the signal track (a), must be at least 3 times the width (w). for those cases where the transmission line have to be curved, bent or close to the boards edge, the 3xw relation to each side of the signal track needs to be followed. in order to maintain the proposed co-planar waveguide (cpw) design, the height from frst middle layer (ground) to the top layer, must be 21 mils +/-1 10%. the computation of the above values gives an impedance of 49.83 ohms. spe-13-8-041/b/rc |
