I tried to design monopole antenna for 900MHz using HFSS.
My antenna dimensions are
Radiator length 90mm
Radiator radius 0.5mm
Dielectric radius 1.2mm
Simulation gives me antenna impedance of 79ohm with some inductive part.
Do i need to match the antenna impedance to 50 Ohm.
When i connect the antenna to VECTOR NETWORK analyzer (VNA), its vswr was not too bad. But there was confusion that VNA shows slightly different impedance from that i got from HFSS.
I have a 1 watt GSM MODEM module with a small antenna. When i connected this antenna to VNA , it shows large vale of VSWR. I also tried GSM antenna from a 1 WATT GSM jammer the result was same. Why such type of antennas shows different impedance from 50 ohm , and they still work.
I tested this antenna. The amplifier in GSM modem also have 50 Ohm i/o impdance.
