Abstract :
A novel patch antenna with switchable slots is proposed for dual-band circularly polarised (CP) operation. Two diode controlled slots are incorporated into the patch for dual-band operation and a pair of tuning stubs are utilised to tune the CP performance. The antenna design and experimental results are presented
