Abstract :
Slot-ring antennas, also called coplanar waveguide patches, are an attractive alternative for their compact geometry, potential for polarization diversity, and capability to transmit and receive on both sides of the ground plane. In this work, a tunable and multi-band rectangular slot-ring antenna configuration is presented.
