International audienceThis letter presents a simple reconfigurable antenna concept, which is based on the influence of reflection phase shifters on the mutual coupling to the parasitic elements. The developed antenna operates in the Industrial, Scientific and Medical band (ISM) at frequency of 2.45 GHz. The objective of this work involves the development of a generic and low-cost reconfigurable antenna, with a 1-D or 2-D layout. The parasitic elements are loaded with varactor phase shifters, and the global synthesis is performed through different radiation pattern objectives. In this letter, we have limited these objectives to two opposite directions as we considered only a 1-D layout. The design has been manufactured and measured. A comparison between the measured and the simulation results shows a very good agreement

“…Another recent work has been published on a low cost architecture of reflectarray, based on PEA with varactors [9]. Even if these reconfigurable architectures have shown a significant interest, they must combine a versatile architecture for different beam forming objectives and they must be easier to manufacture than an antenna array, even if an important number of parasitic elements is required.…”

This article presents a simple reconfigurable antenna concept based on the mutual couplings between parasitic elements. The developed antenna operates in the Industrial Scientific and Medical band (ISM) at 2.45 GHz. The objective of this work consists in the development of a generic and low cost reconfigurable antenna, with a 1D or 2D layout. The parasitic elements are loaded with varactor phase shifters and the global synthesis is performed through different radiation pattern objectives. In this contribution, we have limited these objectives to two opposite directions. The design has been manufactured and measured. The comparison with simulations shows a very good agreement.
