Distance Testing with Nordic Semiconductor nRF52832 Bluetooth Module

[TAIWAN, 03rd Dec. 2024]

In our recent experiment, we tested the effective communication range of the Nordic Semiconductor nRF52832 Bluetooth module, known for its low power consumption and robust performance. We evaluated the module with different antennas: chip antenna, PCB antenna, and uFL antenna, to determine its maximum operational distance.

The tests were conducted in various environments, including open fields and indoor settings. Remarkably, the chip antenna model provided a stable connection up to 300 meters. It also performed a uniform and stable RF pattern, making it suitable for various application fields.
