IWR1642: Putting inside an enclosure

Part Number: IWR1642


Hi Guys,

My customer is using the IWR1642 in their product, and they had some questions:

We are using the following onboard antenna in a new application:

 I want to mount this PCB and onboard antenna in an enclosure and have a few questions:

 

  • What is the field of view of the antenna?
  • What are the ideal dimensions of the radome?
  • Is there an ideal distance the board/antenna should be away from the enclosure/radome?
  • What material do you recommend to use for the radome?
  • What should the thickness of the radome be in order to not cause any interference?

Thanks,

Brian
