Radio (High) Frequency design is quite different from low frequency or digital design. Power levels and spurious signals must be controlled accurately. This places an emphasis on details in the layout of the tracks and components on the PCB. Next to that, test equipment, to validate the results is very different as well. |

Some electronic parts can be implemented as PCB tracks. An antenna is a good example. It is low cost, but it needs some area on the PCB.
