Abstract

Because of its ability to change current distribution, reconfigurable antennas help control and reverse changes in frequency, polarization, and electrical properties. Pin diode is used as microwave converter in the design. There are two resonances in the antenna, one in the X-band and one in the C-band. The proposed antenna is made of 1.6 mm thick FR4 substrate. High-Frequency Building Simulator (HFSS) software is used in a variety of ways. By adding two transitions between on and off states, the antenna design concept is adapted to operate at multiple frequencies. Selected PIN diodes have different resistance, inductance, and capacitance values. The small 40 mm × 40 mm × 1.6 mm model runs at 9.3 GHz in the X-band and 5.9 GHz in the C-band with the two-pin diode turned on. With the first diode pin on and the second diode pin off, the C-band and X-band are 9 GHz and 10.1 GHz, respectively. With the first diode pin closed and the second diode pin open, it operates at 7.4 GHz in the C-band and 11 GHz in the X-band. With the two-pin diodes off, the device operates in the X-band of 10. C-band from 1 to 5.9 GHz. The rectangular patch antenna concept is small, easy to use, and inexpensive. This paper describes the design and analysis of frequency-reconfigurable antennas for C-band and X-band wireless applications. The antenna allows flexibility of this line thus improving its adaptability and compatibility with various communication systems. The new design can improve the performance of many applications by adapting to changing frequency. Important characteristics of antennas such as bandwidth, power model, and gain have been meticulously analyzed to evaluate their suitability for wireless communication around the world.
