The original team is usually small, maybe even just a group of university friends, with combined competencies that cover just a subset of what’s needed to get their product idea to market. These are usually quite narrowly focused, so completing the product development using in-house resources alone is not feasible.

It will be no surprise that it is also fundamental to the performance of any wireless connection and hence one of the most important aspects. Without a well-functioning antenna, the radio link may not be stable and the user’s experience and therefore market acceptance of the product will likely suffer.
