Session 03 - Matching of PCB antennas

  • August 27, 2026

In this session, we perform antenna experiments and measurements in real time. This time we will perform matching of a PCB L-antenna through a live demonstration.

During the live stream, you’ll see:

  • Why antennas detune
  • Theoretical basics of impedance matching
  • How we determine matching circuits using free software
  • Live measurement of the matching on real hardware
  • Interactive Q&A with the audience

This session is ideal for embedded engineers, RF engineers, hardware designers, PCB designers, IoT developers and electronics enthusiasts who want to build reliable wireless products and improve PCB antenna performance.

Presented by Sascha Thiergart.
