The updates come as the AI in the models learns, adapts and improves from ongoing real-life use cases.
The latest Antenna Integrator update adds nine new PCB shape templates – including circle, arc, triangle, pentagon, hexagon, L-shape, U-shape, stepped, and custom user-defined geometries – allowing engineers to model antenna placement on realistic board layouts.
Users can also add rectangular and cylindrical metallic blocks to represent large components such as batteries or displays that affect antenna performance.
Additional features in this release include new export options (3D STEP, PDF, DXF, and JPG) to simplify collaboration between electrical and mechanical design teams, and three new antennas – NLA.01, DLA.01, and PCS.62 – expanding the tool’s library and design capabilities.
This update builds on enhancements introduced earlier this year, including added Ultra-Wideband (UWB) support and expanded performance data, as Taoglas continues to evolve the tool following its launch in late 2024.
“Engineers need faster, smarter ways to deliver reliable connectivity as devices pack in more radios and functionality,” says Taoglas CEO Dermot O’Shea, “with Antenna Integrator, we’re giving design teams the ability to model real-world actual layouts, account for surrounding components, and pick the right products for their design, helping them achieve optimal performance from the start.”
Antenna Integrator enables engineers to visualize and optimize antenna performance early in the design process. Its intuitive interface and rapid reporting, typically within 24 hours, help reduce iterations and accelerate time to market.
The enhanced Antenna Integrator is available now at https://www.taoglas.com/taoglas-antenna-integrator/. Engineers can register for free and begin designing immediately.
