Laird's Custom Antenna Design and Manufacturing Capabilities Include:
Design Expertise
Laird Connectivity’s highly experienced team will work directly with customers to evaluate antenna characteristics and performance factors critical to developing the optimal antenna solution, including frequency band, gain and pattern shaping, radiation efficiency, and required form factors. Laird Connectivity has experience designing, testing and manufacturing antennas from low band VHF frequencies to 7.125 GHz.
Design, Simulation, and Prototyping
Laird Connectivity uses state-of-the-art antenna simulation tools to design and optimize antenna performance for a specific application, addressing challenges such as gain and pattern regulatory restrictions, efficient matching to the radio system, and environmental and mechanical requirements. Laird Connectivity’s unique Artificial Intelligence Optimizer application ensures that the antenna design is as small as possible for the required performance. Laird’s industrial engineers utilize a full machine shop, complete with 3D printing, for rapid prototyping, allowing users to bring their wireless product to market faster.
Testing/3D Patterns
Laird Connectivity operates multiple 3D anechoic antenna test chambers, located globally, that capture accurate, 3D antenna patterns, assuring that your antennas meet or exceed the expected performance requirements.
EMC/FCC Compliance Certification
Laird Connectivity has its own, independently managed, certified FCC/IC/CE test laboratory. This is truly a game changer that sets Laird Connectivity apart from the competition. Whether the product needs compliance certification for the U.S., Canadian, or European markets, the company’s in-house testing capabilities save an enormous amount of time, enabling users to bring their wireless solution to market faster and with complete confidence.
