Abstract
Frequency reconfigurable antenna is presented here with operating frequency of 5.25GHz. This antenna has feature to switch with three different frequencies 5.7374GHz, 5.7778 GHz, 5.8182GHz. The p-i-n diode is used in between the E-Shaped slots of the patch to configure the frequencies. Return loss, Directivity, Gain and VSWR are measured -20.892dBi, 8.1190dBi, 8.1522dBi and 1.3648 respectively. These value are best suited for designing the antenna.
Keywords: E-Shaped Microstrip Patch Antenna, frequency Reconfigurable, RF, p-i-n Diode, VSWR.
