  • Abstract
    A novel design of multi-band multi-service reconfigurable antenna has been developed, and is comprised of multi-segment printed loop structure. The developed antenna looks like a maze and can be easily configured by altering its multi-segment interconnectivity using multitude of switches. Modeled and measured results including the effects of the switching elements will be presented here in details.
