4.2 868 MHz ISM Band PCB Antenna
The LoRaMote is fitted with a breakable PCB antenna, this PCB antenna has been especially tailored to
provide the maximum available power (20 dBm) in the 868 MHz ISM band. All the antenna design
parameters are freely available upon request.
Figure 4: PCB Antenna
This antenna has been tested and a range of over 10km has been reached with the adequate setup. For
more information on the LoRa parameters allowing achieving this range, please refer to the datasheet of
the SX1272.
It is also possible to remove the breakable antenna and connect a standard SMA connector. This can be
especially needed to perform RF testing if another antenna is required.
