How can I improve the range of the antenna, which is operated at ranges from 0.9 to 3 GHz with a wavelength of 3.3 to 10cm? This circuit is for detecting gigahertz signals that are used for a mobile bug.
Here the circuit uses a 0.22µF disk capacitor (C3) to capture the RF signals from the mobile phone. The lead length of the capacitor is fixed as 18 mm with a spacing of 8 mm between the leads to get the desired frequency. The disk capacitor along with the leads acts as a small gigahertz loop antenna to collect the RF signals from the mobile phone
