Abstract
AS new type of electronically tunable magnetic patch antennas with metal magnetic films was designed, fabricated, and tested at 2.1 GHz. The magnetic patch antennas showed an enhanced bandwidth of 50% over the non-magnetic patch antennas, a significantly enhanced directivity, and a large tunability of the radiation intensity of 4.23 dB at a low applied magnetic field of ~20 Oe
