5. Antenna interface
SIM5320J provides RF antenna interface. Customer’s antenna should be located in the host board and
connected to module’s antenna pad through micro-strip line or other types of RF trace and the trace impedance
must be controlled in 50Ω.The maximum gain of the GSM antenna gain should not exceed 2dBi considering the
SAR radio. SIMCom recommends that the total insertion loss between the antenna pad and antenna should meet
the following requirements:
●  GSM900<0.5dB
●  DCS1800 <0.9dB
●  WCDMA 2100<0.9dB
●  WCDMA 850<0.5dB

To facilitate the antenna tuning and certification test, a RF connector and an antenna matching circuit should be
added. The following figure is the recommended circuit.
Figure1: antenna matching circuit
In this figure, the components L101,C101,C102 is used for antenna matching, the value of components can only
be got after the antenna tuning, usually, they are provided by antenna vendor. By default, the L101 is 0 ohm
resistors, and the C101, C102 are reserved for tuning.
The RF test connector in the figure is used for the conducted RF performance test, and should be placed as close
as to the module’s antenna pin. The traces impedance between components must be controlled in 50ohm.
