Introduction The TG.09 Penta-band Cellular Hinged Rotatable SMA antenna is a high efficiency monopole antenna. Compared to other much larger antennas on the market, it has superior wide-band high efficiency characteristics. This antenna is used by many of the leading wireless device providers in the world marketplace. The unique rotatable hinge design enables the user to rotate the antenna to the best angle for an optimal cellular signal reception. As the upper antenna element can move in any direction, it also reduces damage from impact force from any angle to the antenna, compared to traditional hinged right angle or fixed fight angle designs or straight antennas. The tiny dimensions of this antenna coupled with excellent RF performance and an aesthetic high end design feel make it the ideal cellular antenna for routers, vehicle tracking devices, telematics devices, remote monitoring systems, POS devices. The TG.09 as all monopole antennas works best connected directly to the ground-plane of the device main-board. Taoglas offers support services to characterize antenna efficiency on your individual device ground-plane. The TG.09 antenna also supports LTE 700MHz band applications when it is directly connected to ground-planes with lengths above 60mm. Please contact Taoglas regional support centre first if you wish to do PTCRB or network approvals with this antenna attached to your device, so we can check RF integration is correct and do a pre-test first to ensure optimized passive and active performance and a smooth and quick certification approval process. This antenna also comes in a black housing version. TG.09.0113 SPE-11-8-034/E/SS Page 2 of 37 2.

Three different ground planes were chosen. They were all 30mm wide and the lengths were varied beginning at 90mm then 70mm and finally 60mm 90*30mm 70*30mm 60*30mm It was also considered whether the TG.09 antenna was positioned straight or at an angle of 90°. The antenna was positioned on the edge of the Ground Plane for all tests.
