Antennas using RF/microwave materials can be found in base station networks, Bluetooth systems, RFID readers and satellite radio receivers. Although the systems where these antennas operate can be quite different from each other, there are several key properties about the materials used that are common among them. Antenna materials require good control of dielectric constant and low loss, availability of product worldwide and a cost in line with the value that each material brings to the designers. Rogers products offered to this market range from the RO3000® series materials, with the best electrical performance of all commercial products to the RO4500® series materials for the best cost effective solutions. If there are any questions regarding the best materials for your antenna design, please contact Rogers for guidance.
