They are designed for OEM and embedded applications requiring multi-band connectivity across WiFi, Bluetooth, and common IoT protocols. For example, IoT gateways, smart home devices, industrial monitoring equipment, smart meters, and compact consumer electronics.
There is an SMD Bluetooth/WiFi 6E corner-mount antenna, part number LK1810201. And a flexible WiFi 7 antenna using a balanced dipole FPC design, the LK1810501.
LK1810201
The LK1810201, above, measures 3.2 × 1.6 × 0.5mm and is compatible with automated PCB assembly, requiring a clearance area of 5 × 5.2mm for optimal performance. The antenna provides omni-directional radiation, says Leankon.

And the LK1810501, below, is again for devices with restrictions on internal space and the WiFi 7 antenna can mount on internal plastic housings. The company says its architecture makes RF performance largely independent of cable length and RF connector type.

Leankon writes of the new antenna:
“The range includes surface-mount and flexible printed circuit (FPC) antennas operating across 2.4–2.5GHz, 5.15–5.85GHz and 5.925–7.125GHz, covering WiFi 4 through WiFi 7 frequency bands, as well as Bluetooth and IoT protocols such as Zigbee, Matter and Thread. By integrating multiple wireless standards into a single antenna, the products [will] simplify RF design and reduce component count.”
You can find the LK1810201 SMD WiFi Antenna (WiFi 6E/7 Bluetooth) on this Leankon product page (and datasheet). Similarly, the LK1810501 Dipole Flex Bluetooth WiFi 7 Antenna Side Feed is here (datasheet).
Note that evaluation boards and samples are available on request.
Leankon is based in Shanghai and has a representative in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina.
