Directivity
We have seen that standard antennas emit more radiation in some directions
than in others. Indeed, it is topologically impossible for an antenna to emit
waves uniformly in all directions
directions. We use directional pattern to identify the
directivity.
Center frequency
There are many values of center frequency for Sunlord’s chip Bluetooth
antenna, such as 2.54GHz, 2.64GHz, 2.66GHz, 2.71GHz, etc. Range is ±
30MHz frequency
frequency. Greater frequency diversity will better meet customer
needs.

Bandwidth
It is the frequency range to ensure electrical characteristic within the SPEC.
VSWR
VSWR (Voltage
(V lt
Standing
St di Wave
W
Ratio
R ti or, occasionally,

Wave Ratio), is a measure of how efficiently radio-frequency power is
transmitted from a power source, through a transmission line, into a load (for
example from a power amplifier through a transmission line
example,
line, to an antenna)
antenna).
It is calculated by the following formula.
VSWR = (1+Γ)/(1-Γ)
Γ (gamma) is the voltage reflection coefficient near the load
load.
The value of VSWR is between 1 and infinity. If the load and transmission
line are matched, Γ= 0, and VSWR = 1; If completely mismatched, VSWR is
infinity
infinity.

Terms and Descriptions
Return loss
The Return Loss of a line is the ratio of the power reflected back from the
line to the power transmitted to the line and measurement of return loss can
reveal line faults due to mismatching. It is calculated by the following formula.
Return Loss=20log(︱Γ︱)
(gamma)) is the voltage
g reflection coefficient near the load.
Γ (g
For maximum power transfer the return power should be as small as
possible. This means that when expressed in dB, the return loss should be
as large a negative number as possible. For example a return loss of -40dB
is better than one of -20dB.
Gain
It stands for the ability of antenna to emit/receive signals to/from a particular
direction. It can be measured by antenna’s input and output power
amplification. The higher the gain is, the further distance radio wave radiates.
Efficiency
Antenna efficiencyy is defined as the ratio of the total p
power radiated into
space to the total power at the input port.
