Multi-Band and Multi-Parameter Reconfigurable Slotted Patch Antenna with Embedded Biasing Network

RF PIN diodes are used to achieve reconfigurability in frequency, polarization, and radiation pattern. The antenna can be used in different bands by controlling ON and OFF states of two PIN diodes using the embedded biasing network (EBN). The antenna can be used for ultra-wideband (UWB) applications (1.0 GHz to 15.2 GHz) with a resonant frequency of 9.2 GHz. Besides ultra-wideband, it can also be switched to other bands (C, X, and Ku) with different operating frequencies (5.75 GHz, 12.3 GHz, and 15.5 GHz) at other biasing combinations. With this type of antenna, Linear and Circular polarization are achievable. The radiation pattern reconfigurable behavior in the vertical plane has also been achieved. Single Design of the proposed antenna is optimized for the multi-band and multi-parameter reconfigurability applications.
