Abstract
A compact frequency and pattern reconfigurable monopole for LTE and WLAN applications is presented. The antenna consists of an asymmetric fractal patch which is derived from a bow-tie antenna and optimized using Pattern search algorithm. The antenna operates at 1.8 GHz and 5.2 GHz frequency with a different radiation pattern for each case. A single PIN diode is used to achieve frequency and pattern reconfigurability. The antenna is simulated using Ansoft High Frequency Structural Simulator (HFSS) software and fabricated on FR4 substrate with the relative permittivity of 4.4; having size of 30 mm * 24 mm and thickness of 1.6 mm.
