研究目的
To present a radiation pattern reconfigurable antenna that can switch between a bidirectional and a unidirectional radiation pattern by modifying the size of the lower plate of two parallel metallic plates using PIN diodes and adjusting the operating frequency with a varactor diode.
研究成果
The CM theory provides a physical interpretation of the radiating behavior of an antenna. A radiation pattern reconfigurable antenna has been proposed, adjusting the radiation pattern from a bidirectional to a unidirectional pattern using PIN diodes and a varactor diode to adjust the operating frequency at both states.
研究不足
The study is based on simulations using ideal cases, including a fixed capacitor as the varactor diode and a piece of metal as a PIN diode. Practical implementation may face challenges related to the actual performance of these components.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The design is based on the characteristic mode analysis of two parallel metallic plates. The reconfigurable radiating structure uses semiconductor switches to control the radiation pattern.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Two cases are analyzed, corresponding to two plates with the same dimension and two plates with a small difference in the inferior plate length.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Two PIN diodes and a varactor diode are used. The simulation is carried out using CST Microwave Studio.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The antenna is fed from underneath via a probe. The state of the PIN diodes (ON/OFF) changes the radiation pattern, and the varactor diode adjusts the operating frequency.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The behavior of the antenna is analyzed from a modal perspective, and the radiation patterns and S11 parameters are simulated for different states.
