Why choose 868MHz FPC antenna?
The selection of the 868MHz frequency band antenna is based on its close compatibility with the application requirements of low-power wide area networks (LPWAN), IoT devices, and remote communication. By using antennas in the 868MHz frequency band, long-distance communication, low-power operation, strong penetration capability, minimal interference, and compliance with local regulatory requirements can be achieved.
1.Adapt to specific application requirements
IoT devices: The 868MHz frequency band is a popular frequency among IoT devices, especially in regions such as Europe, as 868MHz can be used without a license (in many countries/regions, the ISM frequency band). The choice of 868MHz antenna is to be compatible with the communication frequency of the device being used.
Remote transmission: 868MHz is suitable for remote wireless transmission, especially for devices that requirelow power consumption and wide coverage, such as rural areas or spacious farms. Choosing an 868MHz antenna can ensure stable data transmission over long distances and demonstrate good signal penetration capability in environments with many obstacles.
2. Low power consumption and long battery.
Low power devices: The 868MHz frequency band is typically used for low-power wireless technologies such as LoRa, Sigfox, etc., which are particularly suitable for devices that require battery power and are expected to be used for a long time. Choosing an antenna suitable for the 868MHz frequency band can help reduce battery loss and extend the battery life of low-power devices, providing a more stable wireless connection.
Anti-reflection and multipath effects：
Low frequency signals (868MHz) are usually less sensitive to multipath effects than high-frequency signals, which is beneficial for improving the stability and reliability of wireless communication.
3.Comply with regulatory requirements
Radio spectrum specifications: Different regions have different regulations and restrictions on the use of radio spectrum. In Europe, 868MHz is an unauthorized ISM (Industrial, Scientific, and Medical) frequency band where various low-power devices can operate. Choosing an 868MHz antenna ensures that the device complies with local radio spectrum regulations and avoids legal issues arising from frequency non-compliance.
4.Cost effectiveness
Manufacturing cost: Compared to high frequencies, the 868MHz antenna has a relatively simple design and lower manufacturing cost. For a large number of deployed IoT devices, using antennas in the 868MHz frequency band can typically reduce overall costs.
Adaptation to existing devices: Many IoT devices, sensors, remote monitoring devices, etc. have been standardized to the 868MHz frequency band, so choosing antennas compatible with these devices can ensure interoperability between devices.
