A frequency-selectable patch antenna of circular polarization with integrated MEMS switches

A microstrip patch antenna with integrated RF microelectromechanical system (MEMS) switches is proposed and demonstrated to operate at dual frequencies with circular polarization. The switches are incorporated into the diagonally-fed square patch for controlling the operation frequency and a rectang...

Zusammenfassung:A microstrip patch antenna with integrated RF microelectromechanical system (MEMS) switches is proposed and demonstrated to operate at dual frequencies with circular polarization. The switches are incorporated into the diagonally-fed square patch for controlling the operation frequency and a rectangular stub attached to the edge of the patch acts as the perturbation to produce the circular polarization at 6.69 GHz and 7.06 GHz.
