Figure 5-11. Antenna without tuning elements.
The first tuning step will use the series capacitor to tune the band center down to a
pure resistive behavior. The band center is crossing the 30 degree (1/3 x Z
0
) line.
Therefore, the tuning capacitor can be determined by:

We get a capacitance of 3.89pF, and can simply use a 3.9pF value. The result of this
tuning step can be seen in Figure 5-12, page 21.
