Abstract

The concept of reconfigurability has been associated with existing microstrip patch antennas that are designed for single-use by implementing necessary geometric modifications through the exchange and display of the antenna. This is particularly relevant when addressing factors such as resonant frequency, polarization, and impedance bandwidth. A compact and simple antenna featuring a microstrip line feed and a mechanism for frequency reconfiguration has been developed and assessed. Specifically, a Slotted Microstrip Patch Antenna capable of UWB frequency reconfiguration has been designed for cognitive radio applications. The design incorporates a microstrip patch, feed, and ground, all constructed according to specified parameter values. To achieve frequency reconfigurability, two diodes are strategically placed within a rectangular slot on the patch. The proposed antenna is intended for use in Ku-band (12.7–13.80 GHz) and X-band (8.05–9.75 GHz) satellite communication applications. It has been shown that modifying the switch configurations can alter the antenna's operational frequency while maintaining the emission pattern. Ultimately, the development of this UWB Frequency Reconfigurable Slotted Antenna was guided by the Teaching Learning Based Optimization (TLBO) algorithm.
