Abstract
Reconfigurable antennas based on magnetised ferrite substrate and electronic components present a remarkable interest for nowadays antennas. The present research contribution deals to investigate an efficient multiband tuneable triangular microstrip antenna with acceptable characteristics, able to operate from 2.6 GHz to 5.8 GHz requiring frequency and polarization agility by dual reconfigurability using a YIG (Yttrium Iron Garnet) substrate and PIN diode. Different magnetic bias fields were applied to the proposed antenna for ON and OFF states. The obtained results and analysis demonstrate the efficiency of magnetic frequency tuning and a high stability of the radiated field, the antenna bandwidth can reach 1300 MHz for ON state, and a maximum tuning range close to 550 MHz is observed. The proposed antenna design exhibits a linear polarization and stable E and H–plane radiation pattern performance at resonance frequencies over the operating bands. These characteristics make the antenna suitable for multiband wireless communications requiring frequency agility.
