4.1.5. Reference Design
A reference design of ANT_MAIN and ANT_DIV antenna pads is shown as below. A π-type matching
circuit should be reserved for better RF performance. The capacitors are not mounted by default.

1. Keep a proper distance between the main antenna and the Rx-diversity antenna to improve the
receiving sensitivity.
2. ANT_DIV function is enabled by default. AT+QCFG="divctl",0 can be used to disable receive
diversity. See document [3] for details.
3. Place the π-type matching components (R1 & C1 & C2, R2 & C3 & C4) as close to the antenna as
possible.
