Novel-shaped Frequency Reconfigurable Antenna for Wireless Networks

This Novel-shaped Frequency Reconfigurable Antenna (FRA) is introduced in this study for wireless network applications. High Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS) is used to design and optimize the FRA. The FRA is designed on an FR-4 epoxy substrate with relative permittivity of 4.4. The designed FRA has small dimensions of 30x16x1.6 mm3. The designed FRA has three different operating stats, at (1)2.45 GHz (Bluetooth), 5.48 GHz (WLAN), (2)3.38 GHz (5G – n78), (3)6.10 GHz (Wi-Fi 6E) which can be accessed by optimal placing of RF PIN diode on the FRA design. The antenna can be used in WiMAX, WLAN, 5G, and 6GHz wireless networks applications. DOI : https://doi.org/10.52783/pst.2151
