Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC-ANTENNA-DK2
Dear sir,
I am creating a custom PCB with the CC1310 RF transceiver and the DN038 antenna layout. For packaging reason, the antenna layout will be close to a metal plane, so I am looking for some suggestions about the minimal distance required between the antenna and such undesired ground plane in the vertical direction (beneath the antenna) for acceptable performance. Obviously, I imagine that I have to optimize the antenna network matching due to this ground plane, but probably the efficiency will be limited if such distance is limited to few mm. Do you have any minimal distance? Is there also a minimal distance required between the antenna and a plastic wall? Can the DN024 layout, instead, be used with a bottom ground plane to overcome this problem? Many thanks.
Best regards
