Reconfigurable Antenna

This book shows the design of reconfigurable circular slot antenna fed by coplanar waveguide feeding using economically available PIN diodes. Two antenna models are shown in this dissertation. A complete examination was executed to represent the switching operation by considering the wire bound effects. By loading the TSIR (T-shaped stepped impedance resonator) and PSLR (parallel stub loaded resonator) in the circular ring, resonating characteristics are realized.
