Abstract
Reconfigurable or tunable antennas have become the most interested topic since the demand of multi-operative antenna arises. As the requirement of more than one wireless application through a single device increases, it motivates researchers to design multiband antennas or reconfigurable antennas. This manuscript reviews the recent techniques which were used by various researches to design the tunable antennas. Various techniques were studied, viz. metamaterial, varactor diode, dielectric properties. Throughout the discussion, various issues are highlighted, and best available technique is explained.
