This application note describes important parameters to consider when deciding what kind of antenna to use in a short range device application. Important antenna parameters, different antenna types, design aspects and techniques for characterizing antennas are presented. Radiation pattern, gain, impedance matching, bandwidth, size and cost are some of the parameters discussed in this document. Antenna theory and practical measurement are also covered.
