“…A similar design for wireless sensor network (WSN) is reported in [12] for a license-free ISM band of 2.4 GHz to steer the beam in four different directions (0 °, 90 °, 180 °, and 270 °). e optimization of the state transition for such antennas can be performed using genetic algorithms [13] to achieve a smooth transition among different defined states. A variety of pattern tunable antennas are reported based on different configurations, such as complementary split-ring resonators (CSRR) on the ground [14] and a very popular method of using microelectro-mechanical switches (MEMS) with coupling cells.…”

This paper presents a reconfigurable antenna operating in three modes at different frequency bands with pattern reconfiguration. Frequency and pattern reconfigurability are achieved using four PIN diodes. In particular, two diodes are mounted in the radiating part of the hexagon shape to perform the frequency reconfiguration of the antenna. The other two PIN diodes are connected with the inverted L-shaped and CPW ground by changing the main lobe beam steering to achieve the pattern reconfiguration. An antenna has been designed, fabricated, and numerically and experimentally assessed. The prototype of the antenna is fabricated on a commercially available FR-4 substrate of thickness 1.6 mm ( ε r = 4.3). Thus, the proposed antenna supports several 5G sub-6 GHz bands (3.1 GHz, 4.1 GHz, and 3.8 GHz), WiFi (2.45 GHz), as well as (7.8 GHz, 9.5 GHz) X-Band Satellite applications. The obtained results are quite promising. In particular, it is observed that the measured results are in close agreement with the simulation results, and the proposed (compact) antenna prototype can be a prospective candidate for future portable devices, sensor networks, and telecommunication applications.
