Abstract

Reconfigurable antennas can combine wideband and narrowband characteristics in a single antenna. In this paper, a configurable antenna with six possible configurations is presented with the base structure as a hexagonal patch antenna. The antenna is simulated and analyzed in computer simulation tool (CST). The analysis is based on return loss reports for each configuration. The antenna is designed on a low-cost FR4 substrate with dielectric constant 4.4 with a thickness of 1.6 mm.
