Integrated antenna as, for example, antenova

External antenna connected by means a SMA connector
Despite of the type of antenna chosen, the connection between the RF out pin and the
antenna must be executed in such a way that the connection trace must be matched to
have characteristic impedance (Z0) of 50 Ω to get the maximum power transfer.
Matching for 50 Ω is depending on the various factors, elements to be taken into
consideration are:
–
–
–
–
Type of material, i.e. FR4
The electrical characteristics of the material,i.e. the εr, electric constant at
2.4 GHz
Mechanical dimensions of the PCB and traces, i.e. PCB thickness, trace/
reference ground thickness, trace width, trace thickness
Just to give an example, using a 1 mm thick FR4 board, with an εr = 4.3 at
2.4 GHz, with Cu thickness of 41 µm, the resulted width of 50 Ω strip-line is
1.9 mm (Microstrip type calculation).
