Hello,
I have some degree of experience in electronics, buy know very little about RF. I have 2 questions if you experts can help me.
I have on RF transceiver with 10mW output power and this antenna:
I have to glue this antenna on a box that have an alumimium frame around and the front is acrylic. The back of the box is aluminium sheet.
My question is: What is the best place to glue the antenna? Is the aluminium ok? (will act like a reflector) or bad? It is better to glue it in the acrylic?
Second question: If the antenna goes inside the box will loose much signal? I read someware that attenuation could reach 30%.
Box is 1,5 meters by 1 meter x 9cm and the aluminium and acrylic are 3mm tick.
Thank you in advance for any help.
Best regards
Joaquim
