Abstract:
|
A novel reconfiguration method based in the use of
pixel surfaces as parasitic elements is presented. This concept
can be used to provide reconfigurability to a wide variety of
non-reconfigurable antennas without requiring additional modifications
on the basic antenna design and avoiding any physical
interconnections.
General guidelines are provided for the design of parasitic pixel
surfaces. Reconfigurability of a parasitic pixel layer used in conjunction
with a patch antenna is analyzed. Results demonstrate
simultaneous frequency and radiation pattern reconfiguration
with capabibity of providing till a 10% frequency tuning range
and beamsteering over 30º. |
