Abstract
A polarization reconfigurable PIFA with RF-MEMS switches is proposed as a mobile terminal antenna element for MIMO systems. Two different polarizations are achieved through the symmetrical design that incorporates RF-MEMS switches. Measurements and simulations are presented along with calculations on the correlation between the two configurations.
