Abstract :
The experimental and simulation studies of an aperture coupled reconfigurable pixelated patch antenna for CLAS applications is presented. The antenna active dimensions are reconfigured to attain a wide swath of bandwidths within the 1-2 GHz frequency range. Simulated return loss bandwidths are between 8%-26% while measured bandwidths are between 6%-24% when the antenna is reconfigured from low to high frequency bands.
