Abstract:
A new design for a compact electronically reconffgurable
singlefeed dual frequency dual-polarized operation of a square-microstrip
antenna capable of achieving tunable frequency ratios in the range
1.1 to 1.37 is proposed and experimentally studied. Varactor diodes inlegruted
with the arms of the hexagonal slot and embedded in the
square patch are used to tune the operating frequencies by applying
reverse-bias voltage. The design has the advantage of size reduction up
to 73.21% and 49.86% for the two resonant frequencies, respectively, as
compared to standard rectangular patches. The antenna offers good
bandwidth of 5.74% and 5.36% for the two operating frequencies. A
highly simplified tuning circuitry without any transmission lines adds to
the compactness of the design

Abstract:
A novel reconfigurable, single feed, dual frequency, dualpolarized
operation of a hexagonal slot-loaded square mwrostrip antenna
is presented in this paper. A pin diode incorporated in the slot is
used to switch the two operating frequencies considerably, without significantly
affecting the radiation characteristics and gain. The proposed
antenna provides a size reduction up to 61% and 26% Jor the two resonating
frequencies, compared to standard rectangular patches. This design
also gives considerable bandwidth up to 3.3% and 4.27%, for the two
frequencies with a low operating frequency ratio

Abstract:
A novel dual frequency dual-polarized square microstrip
patch antenna embedded with a slot is presented. The proposed
antenna offers tunability of the frequency ratio between the two
frequencies by adjusting the slot dimensions. This configuration
also provides a size reduction up to -51 and 35% for the two modes
as compared to a square micro strip patch antenna
