antenna enclosure
if i am going to put an antenna inside a plastic enclosure what should i need to consider?
what i can/cannot do
this is a zigbee application
will plastic have a great effect on my gain?directivity?
front: lcd display+microcontroller (digital)
back: power ckts+heat sink (digital)
top: input + other ckts (analog)
bottom: conditioning ckts (analog)
sides: no pcb. just plastic
i am thinking i need to put my RF circuitry at the sides. but this would be problematic. (production purposes)
i was told that the easiest way is to either put it at the top or the front. is this acceptable?
thanks!
