  • Abstract
    A reconfigurable patch antenna is proposed. The antenna design was made with the ambition of not having any potentially interfering DC bias lines and would be operational only with an external bias-tee. The reconfigurable modes make the patch antenna resonant at two frequencies of 1810 MHz and 2035 MHz, for ON and OFF states of the PIN diode, respectively.
