Hi, I have a question about edesign antenna: For my case, I want to print an antenna using silver on a PET substrate eDesigne antenna calculations are based on the antenna of simple Pcb or even for the printing antenna because I will not use copper?

Hi,

conductivity difference between copper (default conductor material used in calculation) and Aluminum (I guess you use Aluminum) has a minor impact on antenna impedance imaginary part calculation. this is much less than the tag IC tuning capacitance variation so you can use also eDesign suite for your antenna calculation.

best regards,

Henry Crane.
