“…The switching speed of a PIN diode is in the range of 1-100 nsec (Christodoulou et al 2012). Reconfigurable antennas resorting to PIN diodes (Chen et al 2007;Chen and Row 2008;Kim et al 2008;Wu and Ma 2008;Sarrazin et al 2009;Shelley Perruisseau-Carrier et al 2010;Piazza et al 2010;Qin et al 2010b;Quin et al 2012;Hinsz and Braaten 2014) have a more dynamic reconfiguration capability. Other reconfigurable antennas resort to the use of varactors (Daviu et al 2007;Jeong et al 2008;Yang et al 2008;Jiang et al 2009;Oh et al 2010;Tawk et al 2012a;Bai et al 2013;Onodera et al 2013;Ramadan et al 2014) where varying the biasing voltage can result in varying the capacitance of the corresponding varactor.…”

“…Thus, graph models are utilized to formulate a reconfigurable antenna's complexity [40]. The overall complexity of an antenna system increases with the number of p-i-n diodes [41,42], RF MEMS [8][9][10], varactors [43,44] or optical switches employed [45,46]. Additional details on graph theory and what guidelines can be used to design and optimize reconfigurable antennas can be found in Appendix A.…”

“…Various methods have been proposed to achieve the pattern diversity in antennas. In [12,13], switching elements or varactor diodes are used on the radiator or feeding network for pattern reconfiguration. The switching diodes and varactor diode needs dc bias circuits, which increase the design complexity and fabrication cost of the antenna.…”

Abstract-In this paper, a pattern diversity antenna, capable of radiating broad side as well as conical radiation patterns using quarter mode substrate integrated waveguide sub-array, has been presented. The pattern diversity is achieved by in-phase and out-of-phase excitation of the sub-array using a ratrace coupler feed network. The overall profile height of the proposed antenna is 3.17 mm. The measured performance of the antenna, in terms of return loss, isolation, gain and diversity performance in the −10 dB impedance bandwidth, is in agreement with the simulated results. The proposed sub-array occupies 25% less area than the conventional microstrip antenna.
