Antenova launch chip antennas for the new NB-IoT standard
Antenova Ltd, a leading manufacturer of antennas and RF antenna modules for M2M and the Internet of Things (IoT), has developed a brand new antenna for the new Narrow Band IoT (NB-IoT) standard which was ratified during 2016.
The new antenna is very compact, measuring just 20 x 11 x 1.6mm, and utilises a novel design which allows it to perform well within a device, whilst being easy to integrate onto a small PCB. This new chip antenna is part of the company's lamiiANT antenna family and is named Latona, (part no. SR4C033).
Narrow Band IoT is the latest mobile broadband standard. It uses the 3GPP licenced network spectrum which is secure and free from interference, and offers the combined advantages of low power, long range and the ability to penetrate walls and metal barriers.
"Narrow Band IoT will be good for connecting devices in locations where the signal distance is in kilometers and for locations in basements and underground." explains Antenova's CEO, Colin Newman. "It could be the enabler for some of the IoT applications that are emerging that are not suited to the established telecoms networks, where the data throughput is quite low and infrequent. We see these antennas being used for smart metering, agricultural technologies, building automation and smart city applications with lighting, waste bins and parking spaces."
As with all of Antenova's embedded antennas, the NB-IoT antennas are designed for quick and easy integration onto a host PCB.
The Latona NB-IoT antennas are ideal for a range of applications including Remote monitoring, Smart meters, Network Devices, Smart Buildings, Smart cities, Manufacturing Automation, Agriculture/Environment and Tracking
