Abstract

SummaryA novel pattern reconfigurable antenna is proposed in this letter. The overall dimension of the antenna is 11 × 11 × 0.787 mm. The proposed antenna is fabricated on Rogers RO4003C substrate. The antenna has two meandered monopoles and two straight monopoles. Two PIN diodes are connected between meandered monopoles and feed. The proposed design has three states of switching, that is, ON‐ON, ON‐OFF, and OFF‐ON. The antenna radiates from 18.5 to 26.25 GHz band with more than 5 GHz (−10 dB) bandwidth for all states. The proposed geometry exhibits 270° radiation beamwidth with 45° and 135° directions for ON‐OFF and OFF‐ON state, respectively.
