  • 🚀 Welcome to our deep dive into the world of 3D printed antennas! In this exciting video, we're embarking on a three-part series that explores the fascinating intersection of 3D printing technology and advanced antenna design.
    👨‍🔬 Why 3D Printed Antennas?
    We delve into the reasons behind our focus on 3D printed antennas, combining our passion for education, science, and innovative technologies.
    Discover how we're making tech exploration fun and accessible, with a particular emphasis on 5G, Wi-Fi 6E, and the latest advancements in wireless connectivity.
    🛠️ Real-World Applications:
    Learn about the diverse applications of our 3D printed antennas in IoT, marine, space industries, and beyond.
    See how we integrate these antennas with cutting-edge devices like the RUTX50 from Teltonika and our custom cables for comprehensive connectivity solutions.
    📡 Testing and Discovery:
    Join us on a journey to Christies Beach as we test the range and efficiency of our 5.8 GHz Wi-Fi system on a 2 km stretch of beach.
    Watch as we demonstrate the real-world performance of our antennas, conducting speed tests and exploring their capabilities in various conditions.
    🔬 In-Depth Analysis:
    Get a sneak peek into the upcoming videos where we'll assess antenna performance using the MegiQ RMS system and delve into the specifics of the materials used, including WavePro's innovative dielectric substrate .
    💡 What's Next?
    Stay tuned for the subsequent parts of the series, where we'll explore the 'how' of 3D printed antennas and their detailed construction.
    We'll also share insights on the WavePro materials and the potential of 3D printed antennas in various industrial and consumer applications.

    Reminds me of the good old days of 802.11a where we created a building bounced wifi connection to a friend (3km away with diy helical antennas) just to be able to use his internet connection 😂

      Indeed.

    David- THANK YOU so much for this channel. I've had to learn much of this myself through trial-and-error, but you've answered many of my questions that weren't addressed anywhere else. (Been to Adelaide a couple times too, gorgeous town!)
    Are the 3D files for this antenna available for download somewhere?
    Is there an efficient RF switch I could use to select between different cellular antennas?

      Thanks heaps. An RF switch is something that gets used more in the specialist fields of engineering. They are quite expensive (few $100's) but work well. I would say it'll be easier to use a physical swap.

    That is so awesome, love your channel for your great visualizations and demonstrations!! Came from your "Converting a satellite dish to a WiFi antenna" video, and glad that audio is much better.

      Thanks a lot. A bit busy with other things right now but working on a new video in the coming week or so

    Hi David, good video!
    It would be worth re testing with a 20mhz channel width, and noting the fresnel zone radius.
    At 400M on 5.8ghz the radius is 2.27M it looks like the beach may be obstructing that due to low antenna and phone heights.

      100% agreed. I purposely used my iPhone for this test as it is probably the worst WiFi receiver I could use, but I was trying to emulate real use situations. Eventually I would love to use an ALFA Card with another dish as my receiver, and also go from a cliff to the beach (which is on the other side of the same beach). In that instance I believe I will get well past 1km range.
