Aperture-Coupled Frequency-Reconfigurable Stacked Patch Microstrip Antenna (Frspma) Integrated With Pin Diode Switch

Abstract: Abstract-In this paper, a new Frequency-Reconfigurable Stacked Patch Microstrip Antenna (FRSPMA) with a new coupling method applied in an aperture-coupled technique controlled by the switching circuit is presented. This antenna uses a combination of aperturecoupled technique and stacked patch in order for the radiating elements to increase the bandwidth. Two shapes (I-shape and H-shape) and sizes of aperture slots are etched onto the ground with a purpose to couple the energy between feedline and stacked patch… Show more

“…Generally, PIN diodes are used as switching elements in order to alter operating frequencies because of their simplicity of implementation (Nikolaou et. al., 2006;Lai, 2009;Ramli, 2013), this will obviously bring some modifications in the impedance bandwidths, polarization, and radiation patterns of microstrip antennas according to the operating requirements. Nowadays, microstrip antennas fabricated with magneto-dielectric composites substrates, find an important study of their performance, for its certain useful patterns properties control like frequency shifting, and scattering reduction (Menezes et al, 2020).…”

“…The widely used approaches for frequency reconfigurability are electrical and/or mechanical. Electrical switching employs micro-electro-mechanical switches (MEMS), positive intrinsic negative (PIN) diodes, varactors, etc for performing its switchable operations, 10 whereas the mechanically reconfigurable antenna uses actuators, counterweights, motor, pulley, etc. These devices occupy more space and thus increase the size of an antenna.…”

“…Change in resonance switches the operating frequency of antenna. Four different techniques are used to change the current path on patch: use of electronic switching devices such as PIN diodes, varactor diodes or Micro Electro Mechanical Switches (MEMS) in radiating element or microstrip feed line [11], employment of optical switches in structure of antenna, use of metamaterials to change frequency of antenna [12,13] and through mechanical changes which are introduced by including different mechanically movable parts in structure of antenna [14]. Reconfigurable antennas containing multiple ports and multiple patches in a single structure have also been proposed [15][16][17].…”
