u-blox ANT-B11 BLUETOOTH® AoA Antenna Board
u-blox ANT-B11 BLUETOOTH® AoA Antenna Board is compact and designed for BLUETOOTH angle-of-arrival (AoA) direction-finding systems. The board features three-patch antenna elements that combine performance and a small PCB size. The antenna measures the angle of an incoming BLUETOOTH Low Energy radio signal and determines a BLUETOOTH LE device's azimuth or elevation information in an indoor environment. The u-blox ANT-B11 BLUETOOTH® AoA Antenna Board features the NINA-B411 BLUETOOTH 5.1 standalone module running the u-locateEmbed software that implements the unique u-blox direction-finding algorithm for high-precision indoor positioning. The digital interfaces of the NINA-B411 module connect to a standard, widely available pin header, allowing easy connection to an application board, thus forming a complete AoA anchor point.
