  • Abstract
    A yagi-uda shaped frequency reconfigurable antenna has been presented in this paper. This antenna is designed for four bands B1-1.6 GHz, B2-1.4GHz, B3-1.3GHz and B4-2.6GHz used for various applications like GPS, FDMA, PCS, Bluetooth, etc. For the proposed antenna return loss is better than -10dB and VSWR is below 2 for each band. PIN diodes are used to switch frequencies between different bands. The antenna structure proposed is compact in size.
