I. Core Product System
VLG 3G antennas are centered on "multi-form adaptability + full-scenario coverage," and are mainly divided into two categories:
Built-in Integrated Antennas
Forms: FPC flexible antenna, PCB rigid antenna, spring antenna, LDS laser-engraved antenna, etc.
Frequency Bands: Covers mainstream 3G frequency bands (820-960MHz, 1710-2170MHz), compatible with 2G/4G multi-mode communication
Typical Applications: POS machines, smart water/electricity meters, locators, smartwatches, and other small IoT devices
External High-Performance Antennas
Forms: Glue rod antenna, fiberglass antenna (high gain version)
Key Parameters: Gain 3-8dBi, impedance 50Ω, supports N-type/SMA type connectors, some models have IP67 waterproof rating
Typical Applications: Outdoor base stations, vehicle terminals, CPE devices, and other scenarios with strong signal requirements
Combined Antenna Solutions
For example, 3-in-1 vehicle antenna (3G + Bluetooth + GPS), 5-in-1 Intelligent terminal antenna (3G/4G + Wi-Fi + GNSS), integrating multiple communication modules into a compact housing.
II. Core Technical Features
Wideband Compatibility: Supports full-band customization from 100MHz to 8000MHz, adapting to mainstream global 3G operator standards (such as Verizon, Vodafone, SoftBank, etc.).
Precise Performance Optimization:
3D modeling and simulation: Simulates signal transmission based on the overall structure, proactively avoiding layout interference.
Full-process testing: Provides passive parameter (VSWR, gain) and active OTA testing to ensure signal stability.
Anti-interference design: Solves electromagnetic interference (EMC) issues between the antenna and the motherboard.
Scenario-specific adaptation:
Industrial grade: Designed for narrow spaces in devices such as water meters and smoke detectors, supporting a wide operating temperature range of -40℃ to 85℃.
Automotive grade: Employs left-hand circular polarization technology to ensure signal continuity in mobile scenarios (such as dual-band satellite + 3G combined antenna).
III. Customized Services and Case Studies
Customization Process: Needs Assessment (Frequency Band/Size/Environment) → 3D Simulation Modeling → Sample Testing → Mass Production Optimization; cycle time can be compressed to 2-4 weeks.
Key Clients: Serving companies such as ZTE, Hikvision, Quectel, and Siemens; products are certified by operators such as ATT and Orange.
IV. Selection Recommendations
Small IoT Terminal Scenarios: We recommend using FPC/PCB built-in antennas. Key considerations are size ≤50mm and low power consumption to suit compact installation spaces and energy-saving requirements.
Outdoor Fixed Equipment Scenarios: We recommend using external fiber optic antennas. Key considerations are gain ≥5dBi and IP65 protection rating to ensure signal strength and equipment durability in complex outdoor environments.
Vehicle-Mounted Smart Terminal Scenarios: We recommend using 3G+GNSS combined antennas. Key considerations are vibration resistance and multi-band integration to meet signal stability and multi-functionality requirements in vehicle environments.
