Planar beam‐switching dipole antenna

Abstract: A new planar beam‐switching dipole antenna is proposed in this study. It consists of a peanut‐shaped dipole with folded slots and a pair of parasitic elements with two positive intrinsic‐negative (PIN) diodes. The feeding structure is made up of a short microstrip line, which is excited by a differential signal. Based on the Yagi–Uda antenna, pattern reconfigurability is realised by changing the states of PIN diodes. The proposed antenna is simulated, fabricated and measured. Experimental results indicate that… Show more

“…The novelty of this work is to establish a synthesis of the RFID tag antenna with RF PIN diode to achieve switching operation within the UHF band so that the tag can be used in different countries according to the RFID communication frequency assigned in the respective countries thereby facilitating inter-country transportation of vehicles. There are numerous works on switching performances of an antenna using RF diodes [21,22]. Entire investigations of the above-mentioned designs are limited to 50 Ω port antennae that cannot be implemented in RFID tags since they use chips as feeding ports which have complex impedance.…”

“…In this way, by activating a different part of the antenna, a corresponding pattern is enabled, resulting in pattern-reconfigurable properties. This is properly explained in [4], where the omnidirectional pattern contains two identical patterns, while in [5], the same principle is studied but with four brackets for the antenna and four patterns as well. Another important characteristic of reconfigurable antennas is the possibility to operate on different frequencies.…”
