  • Abstract
    In this paper, number of reconfigurable antennas is designed to support multi-band and wideband wireless applications in the different frequency bands in the range between 1 GHz and 6 GHz. The proposed antennas consist of two unequal dipoles. By controlling the lengths of the dipoles using MEMs we are able to change the antenna operating frequency as well as the operation mode.
