The Design is a quotidian rectangular patch antenna which functions on three Different frequency bands. Tri-band antenna is an electronic device that can operate in three different frequency bands. Taking the advantage of antenna parameter modification in to account the tri-band operation is achieved. Reconfigurable antenna is capable of modifying its frequency and radiation properties in a controlled and changeable manner. The antenna is designed with the use of dielectric substrate of 1.6mm thickness with permittivity of 4.6. The design is simulated in HFSS platform. In designed antenna, configuration I engages in three different bands of frequencies 1.3 ∼ 3, 4.1 ∼ 4.7, 6.1 ∼7.6 GHz where the return loss value is around and below -10 dB. The Configuration I is designed to have an enhanced performance over a specified range of frequency (1.5 GHz to 3 GHz). But configuration II is devised to have a subsided performance over all UWB frequency ranges. The return loss of configuration II is -15 dB over 1.25 GHz to 2 GHz range and -12 dB over 4.25 GHz to 5.75 GHz range, -14 dB for 7.5 GHz to 8.5 GHz range. Switching between the frequencies is achieved using three symmetrical ideal RF MEMS switches. The Patch antenna which can be applicable to wireless communication systems like Sensing, RFID, WLAN is presented.
