Hussain, Musa, Ali, Esraa Mousa, Awan, Wahaj Abbas, Hussain, Niamat, Alibakhshikenari, Mohammad, Virdee, Bal Singh and Falcone, Francisco (2022) Electronically reconfigurable and conformal triband antenna for wireless communications systems and portable devices. PLoS one, 17 (12). pp. 1-15. ISSN 1932-6203
This paper presents the design of a triband antenna that can be electronically configured to operate at different frequencies. The proposed antenna is design to operate at sub-6GHz bands at 2.45 GHz (ISM, Wi-Fi, and WLAN), 3.3, 3.5 & 3.9 GHz (WiMAX), and 4.1 & 4.9 GHz (4G & 5G). This is achieved by connecting two open-ended stubs to a modified triangular patch radiator using PIN diodes. The antenna’s performance was optimized using a 3D electromagnetic solver and its performance was verified through measurements. Moreover, the conformal analysis done on the antenna shows that the proposed technique can be used in moderately flexible wireless devices without compromising the antenna’s gain, radiation efficiency and radiation patterns. These characteristics makes the proposed antenna applicable for various wireless communication systems and devices.
