“…Fig. 3 shows that various printed monopoles designed like monopole antenna array [63], folded monopoles antenna [64] and printed inverted-F [65] that achieved a stable radiation pattern in each operation state in their microwave frequency application. In [63], the monopole antenna surrounded by four parasitic elements has connected to coaxial fed with a 45 • angle interval.…”

“…The symmetrical structure of the antenna contributed to the good stability in terms of radiation pattern reconfiguration. The study in [65] has shown that the printed inverted-F with the partial ground had matching and pattern optimize by altering the stub's length and width. This design provides orthogonal radiation patterns using only one PIN diode for reconfigurability and achieved HPBW beamwidth of 226 • and 118.5 • .…”

New requirements in communication technologies make it imperative to rehash conventional features such as reconfigurable antennas to adapt with the future adaptability advancements. This paper presents a comprehensive review of reconfigurable antennas, specifically in terms of radiation patterns for adaptation in the upcoming Fifth Generation (5G) New Radio frequency bands. They represent the key of antenna technology for materializing a high rate transmission, increased spectral and energy efficiency, reduced interference, and improved the beam steering and beam shaping, thereby land a great promise for planar antennas to boost the mid-band 5G. This review begins with an overview of the underlying principals in reconfiguring radiation patterns, followed by the presentations of the implemented innovative antenna topologies to suit particular advanced features. The various adaptation techniques of radiation pattern reconfigurable planar antennas and the understanding of its antenna design approaches has been investigated for its radiation pattern enhancement. A variety of design configurations have also been critically studied for their compatibilities to be operated in the midband communication systems. The review provides new insights on pattern reconfigurable antenna where such antennas are categorized as beam steering antenna and beam shaping antennas where the operation modes and purposes are clearly investigated. The review also revealed that for mid-band 5G communication, the commonly used electronic switching such as PIN diodes have sufficient isolation loss to provide the required beam performance.

“…They also can improve the capacity of communication systems, increase signal power, improve radiation coverage, and avoid polarization mismatching. Radiation pattern reconfigurability can steer the antenna pattern to satisfy system needs [78], and can improve channel capacity without increasing a radiator's volume [79,80]. Many such antennas have been proposed recently [77][78][79][80][81][82][83][84].…”

“…Furthermore, the antenna can be dynamically reconfigured into three different polarizations. In [79], a PIFA was proposed with radiation pattern and polarization diversity; the main radiator has an inverted F-shaped parasitic structure. Using only one diode, the antenna can switch the antenna pattern and polarization properties in the frequency range of 2.357-2.562 GHz.…”

Reconfigurable antennas play important roles in smart and adaptive systems and are the subject of many research studies. They offer several advantages such as multifunctional capabilities, minimized volume requirements, low front-end processing efforts with no need for a filtering element, good isolation, and sufficient out-of-band rejection; these make them well suited for use in wireless applications such as fourth generation (4G) and fifth generation (5G) mobile terminals. With the use of active materials such as microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), varactor or p-i-n (PIN) diodes, an antenna’s characteristics can be changed through altering the current flow on the antenna structure. If an antenna is to be reconfigurable into many different states, it needs to have an adequate number of active elements. However, a large number of high-quality active elements increases cost, and necessitates complex biasing networks and control circuitry. We review some recently proposed reconfigurable antenna designs suitable for use in wireless communications such as cognitive-ratio (CR), multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO), ultra-wideband (UWB), and 4G/5G mobile terminals. Several examples of antennas with different reconfigurability functions are analyzed and their performances are compared. Characteristics and fundamental properties of reconfigurable antennas with single and multiple reconfigurability modes are investigated.

“…The available literature is rich of examples of beam switching antennas using parasitic elements. [5][6][7] However, this approach does not allow simultaneous reception, or monitoring the signal level (or SNR), on several beams. In the Aboufoul's study, 8 a two-port UWB monopole antenna was presented.…”

In this letter, an ultra‐compact, wide‐band, four‐port antenna, integrated within the ATSC receiver housing for indoor reception of TV broadcast is presented. The four ports with moderate directivity are used to attenuate interferences and mitigate indoor multipath fading. The antenna hybrid topology is inspired from the Annular Slot Antenna (ASA) and the wide band printed monopole. The antenna is printed on an FR4 substrate with total dimensions of 280 × 280 × 1.2 mm3. It covers both high‐VHF and UHF TV broadcast bands in the US, with an S11 < ‐6 dB and a mean total efficiency of 18.5% in the VHF band and a S11 < ‐10 dB and a mean total efficiency of 52.9% in the UHF band. By switching between the four beams, a very good omni‐directional coverage is achieved in the horizontal plane. The antenna simulated performances are thoroughly analyzed and validated via measurements. The antenna was also integrated in a product and system tests for the indoor reception of TV broadcast in real field conditions revealed very promising performances.
