摘要
The design of a switchable microstrip-fed half annular ring slot antenna for multi-frequency operation is proposed. By incorporating three switches along the meandered tuning stub that is loaded on top of the half circular patch located within the circular slot, easy reconfigurability of four frequency bands over a frequency ratio of approximately 1.7:1 can be achieved. Furthermore, the proposed antenna structure does not require additional DC biasing circuit. Simulation and measurement results have demonstrated that the four frequency bands can exhibit good impedance matching, stable radiation patterns and desirable gains.
