  • Abstract
    This works presents the simulated and measured results of reconfigurable slotted microstrip antenna. It is shown in simulation that the operating frequencies can be tuned within 1.28 GHz to 2.92 GHz by using 14 combinations of active switches. Therefore, it has been proven that the reconfiguration of the operating frequencies can be achieved by changing the slot length on the antenna by turning on or off the switches in certain combinations.
