Introduction** The 5dBi ISPC.86A antenna is designed primarily for compact fixed wireless applications in the 865MHz to 870MHz frequency range where extra coverage range is required. The antenna functions best when the backside is placed on a metal panel. When placed on a reference 30cm square ground-plane, the antenna has excellent directional hemispherical radiation pattern up to 5dBi on the zenith, and an efficiency of 65%. Even without a ground-plane underneath the antenna achieves 1dBi and an efficiency of 40~50%, with an omnidirectional pattern. This ceramic patch antenna with RG178 and MMCX male right angle connector is a great solution for the following typical applications - RFID Readers - Short range 868MHz mesh networks Cable type, length and connector can be customized. Mechanical customization can also be done for a minimum order quantity. Please contact your regional Taoglas office for more details. SPE-14-8-057/C/WY Page 2 of 17 ## **2.

Drawing** SPE-14-8-057/C/WY Page 10 of 17 ## **6. Application Note** Taoglas considers the application here of the ISPC.86A antenna in different typical environments. Some environments the antenna will be close to ground plane (or general metal objects) and at different orientations. The distance to ground-plane will also differ. Following this rationale, we compiled the antenna S11 variation charts as below to evaluate the typical effects on performance. A degraded return loss would generally to relatively decreased efficiency, peak gain, and deformed radiation patterns. **Note - while it may appear from the return loss on the ground above antenna that the antenna may work in this orientation, it is likely the gain and efficiency are very poor, we would not recommend it under any circumstance** There are three general situations of a ground plane orientation to antenna, the setup is as below.
