In this study, a coplanar waveguide‐fed reconfigurable antenna using crescent‐shaped fractal geometry is presented. The frequency reconfigurable approach is obtained using radio‐frequency positive intrinsic negative diodes, resistor, and inductors. The proposed approach has successfully allowed reconfigurable switching up to eight frequency bands between 1.46 and 6.15 GHz. Good results have been obtained in terms of stable and omnidirectional radiation patterns. The realised gains of the antenna system, in these frequency bands, vary from 0.52 to 5.67 dBi. The designed antenna has the advantages of a multiband structure and compact size over the previously reported structures. The proposed antenna is suitable for future wireless application systems.
