Specification Patent Pending Part No. : FXUWB10.07.0100C Description : AccuraUWB Flex Series 3~10GHz Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) Flex Antenna with 100mm 1.37mm IPEX MHFHT Features : Flexible UWB Antenna Mounting on non-metal surfaces For European and USA UWB Applications For Channels 1-15 Frequency: 3.010.3GHz Cable:100mm 1.37 Coaxial Connector: IPEX MHFHT (U.FL compatible) Dims: 35*24.5*0.2mm RoHS Compliant SPE-17-8-052/A/AZ Page 1 of 18 1. Introduction The AccuraUWB FXUWB10 flexible polymer antenna, at 35*24.5*0.2 mm, is a small form factor, ultra-thin Ultra-Wideband (UWB) antenna with high efficiencies across the pulsed UWB communications operational bands. It is assembled by a simple peel and stick process, attaching securely to non-metal surfaces via 3M adhesive. It enables designers to use only one antenna that covers all available UWB commercial bands, namely bands 1 through 15 simultaneously. The AccuraUWB antenna is a durable flexible polymer antenna that has average peak gain of 5dBi, an efficiency of more than 75% across the bands and is designed to be mounted directly onto a plastic cover. It is an ideal choice for any device maker that needs to keep manufacturing costs down over the lifetime of a product. It is ground plane independent and delivered with a cable and connector for easy connecting to the wireless module or customer PCB. Cables and Connectors are customizable, however maximum microcoax cable length is 100 mm. Like all such antennas, care should be taken to mount the antenna at least 10mm from metal components or surfaces, and ideally 20mm for best radiation efficiency. Like all such antennas, care should be taken to mount the antenna at least 10mm from metal components or surfaces, and ideally 20mm for best radiation efficiency. Ultra-wideband (also known as UWB) is a low power digital wireless technology for transmitting large amounts of digital data over a wide spectrum of frequency bands typically spanning more than 500MHz with very low power for short distances. While the cable type and length are customizable, as is the connector, do note that a custom designed antenna may be needed in those circumstances. Also tuning of the antenna may be needed in specific customer device environments. Taoglas offers this testing and tuning service subject to NRE and MOQ. Contact your regional Taoglas office for support. The low power requirements of UWB mean increased battery life of sensors and tags leading to reduction in overall operational costs.
