e. In this Embedded World 2026 interview with ‪@ipXchange‬, learn how Oxion™ helps engineers evaluate antenna options earlier, reduce prototype-stage surprises, and make better wireless design decisions. In this video, you''ll learn:

• Why leaving the antenna to the prototype stage increases cost, delay, and design risk
• How Oxion™ supports an antenna-first workflow with a simple three-step design journey
• What support is available from Ignion''s engineering team, global experts, and the Max AI assistant
• How engineers can get started with free access and explore added support options for their project

Featuring Ignion''s Virtual Antenna® technology, the discussion explores how collaboration across hardware, connectivity, and antenna design helps reduce complexity, accelerate time-to-market, and improve device performance. Speakers include Patrick Noordhoek (Nordic Semiconductor), Loubna El Madi (Ignion), Giulia Manzini (Onomondo), and Roel Loeffen (Ampel Technologies).

Each added band, radio, or layout change typically forces antenna redesign, re-matching, and repeated testing. This video explains how Ignion''s Virtual Antenna® Technology enables a different RF development approach.

In this video, see how Oxion™ helps engineers start an antenna integration project in under 60 seconds, compare predicted performance before prototyping, and catch PCB issues earlier with Gerber review. You''ll see how to test placements and form factors, flag clearance and footprint conflicts, get 24/7 AI guidance plus engineering support, and move from design review to BOM and procurement checks with less RF guesswork.

With automated PCB Gerber review and guided optimization tools, Oxion™ accelerates development, empowering engineers to: ✅ Analyze PCB layouts and identify potential RF issues in seconds ✅ Get expert antenna insights for optimal integration ✅ Fine-tune antenna placement with real-time performance feedback ✅ Streamline development with a centralized project dashboard Get it right from step one-smart RF integration starts here. Ready to optimize your wireless device effortlessly?

In this quick walkthrough, you''ll see how Oxion''s brand-new and smart make integrating antennas easier than ever - no RF wizardry required. Whether you''re just starting out or deep into RF design, Oxion gives you real-time insights, step-by-step guidance, and the confidence to build it right the first time.

The discussion explains how early antenna decisions help engineers evaluate the full RF chain, support RF testing, and avoid late-stage surprises with board size and performance. You''ll also hear why integrating the antenna in a reference design reduces effort for customers working from the chipset or module level, instead of leaving antenna tuning and optimization until the end of the product cycle.

In this Ignion Talks episode, ‪@NordicSemi‬ shares how the Thingy:91 X was built as a multi-radio reference platform for LTE-M, NB-IoT, GNSS and Wi-Fi. The challenge wasn''t the radio. It was making everything work in a very small form factor. Key topics: • Multi-radio integration in compact devices • Why RF performance depends on antenna design • Supporting customers who are not RF experts • From cellular to satellite connectivity

Small size, low power, and reliable connectivity all need to work together. Key topics: • Designing tracking devices without RF expertise • Power, size and RF trade-offs • Early antenna integration to reduce risk • Real-world deployment challenges

You''ll learn what TRP and TIS measure, how carrier waivers can apply, what a prototype needs before OTA testing, and why test mode access, AT commands, battery planning, and UFL test points matter for a smoother certification process.

In this Embedded World 2026 interview with ‪@ipXchange‬ the teams break down what is on the board, why RF performance changes when layouts are modified, how the matching network adds tuning flexibility, and where this design fits best, from smart metering to asset tracking with outdoor GNSS and indoor Wi-Fi positioning. If you are working on ST87M01-based designs, this is a practical starting point for reviewing the reference layout, BOM, schematic, and RF documentation before moving into your own PCB.
