## **1. Introduction** 

This high performance, low profile, PCB antenna is based on smart **TheStripe™** antenna technology. It consists of a PCB antenna and mini coaxial cable. The product is a high gain Penta-band 850/900/1800/1900/2100 antenna suitable for worldwide GSM, UMTS and WCDMA applications. Its high efficiency (62% average) makes it an ideal choice to pass telecom operator’s testing approvals. The product should be tested in free space conditions connected to the client’s cellular device. 

Further optimization can be done upon receipt of the client’s device at a local Taoglas facility.
