Abstract :
The results of study of the reconfigurable antenna operating at the frequency of 36 GHz have been shown. The reconfigurable antenna concept based on silicon substrate seems to be suitable for mm-wave and sub-THz applications. The key element of the presented concept is a surface p-i-n (S-PIN) diode embedded into silicon substrate. Results of the simulations of the reconfigurable antenna operating at sub-THz frequency are also presented.
