ANT-915-IPW1-RPS

Antenna Orientation

The ANT-915-IPW1-RPS antenna is characterized in two antenna orientations as shown in Figure 2. The

antenna straight orientation characterizes use of an antenna attached to an enclosure-mounted connector

which is connected by cable to a printed circuit board. Although the antenna is a dipole not requiring a

ground plane for function, characterization with an adjacent ground plane, (102 mm x 102 mm) provides

insight into antenna performance when attached directly to a printed circuit board mounted connector. The

two orientations represent the most common end-product use cases.
