Tóm tắt

The Planar microwave antennas with simultaneously selectively narrowband and wideband resonance characteristics are essential for the diversity applications. The paper presents modeling, fabrication and experimental verification of a coplanar waveguide excited antenna with a complementary patch which exhibits a narrow-band resonance at 2.47 GHz, and a wideband resonance between 5.52 and 11 GHz. A reconfigurability in the antenna design was achieved by placing a PIN diode across the slot position, and the wideband resonance was switched to the narrowband resonance with a center frequency of 9.56 GHz. The device was fabricated on a foam-based substrate of relative permittivity ε r  = 2.2 and loss factor tanδ = 0.007. The tested antenna shows a comparable matching with the simulated results and a superior performance over the other reported reconfigurable CPW antennas was achieved.
