Abstract
A frequency reconfigurable antenna is presented with operating frequency as 3.35GHz.This antenna is capable of switching to four different frequencies 2.3232 GHz, 7.9797 GHz, 6.8484 GHz and 6.9292 GHz. There are 2-p-i-n diodes used in between the different slots to achieve frequency reconfigurability. Proposed design has been found to have better performance over the conventional one by considering the characteristics like Return Loss, Directivity, Gain and VSWR.
Keywords: Microstrip Patch Antenna, Reconfigurable frequency, p-i-n Diode.
