Design and Simulation of a Bluetooth Antenna for Wearable Devices Using HFWorks
Design and Simulation of a Bluetooth Antenna for Wearable Devices Using HFWorks Wearable devices have recently become the point where fashion meets technology. This branch of smart electronics is a great example of emerging Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Bracelets and watches are among the most popular wearables these days. They usually employ the Bluetooth protocol to secure a connection with a handheld device like a cell phone or a tablet.
These devices require omnidirectional antennas to make sure that the connectivity is maintained when the arm moves in different directions. Moreover, the antenna needs to be low profile, printable on a flexible PCB and as tiny as possible. This webinar will demonstrate how a miniature Bluetooth antenna for a wearable device can be designed and simulated using HFWorks* inside the SOLIDWORKS environment.
