Reconfigurable antenna design by using pin diode
The concept of a reconfigurable of dipole and fractal dipole antennas were investigated to vary the frequency that is operated within 0.9GHz and 5GHz by changing the switches to ON or OFF mode by controlling PIN Diode switches. The fractal structure is used in antenna designs because of miniaturizat...
