An antenna system that is reconfigurable in frequency is presented in this paper as a novel dual port design that serves both undelay and interweave cognitive radio. This 25×40×0.8 mm3 system is composed of two wide slot antennas: the first is designed as an ultra-wideband (UWB) antenna with controllable band rejection capabilities, while the second antenna is reconfigurable for communication purposes. Three slots are etched into the patch of the UWB antenna to obtain band notching in wireless local area network/Xband/International Telecommunication Union bands (WLAN/Xband/ITU) bands which can be controlled by a positive-intrinsic-negative (PIN) diode across each slot. The configuration states of these three diodes are all useable that produces seven band rejection modes plus the UWB operation mode. The second antenna is configured by five PIN diodes to operate either in Cband, WLAN or Xband regions which results in three interweave modes when setting the first antenna for UWB sensing. The design is simulated by computer simulation technology (CST) v.10. S21 results shows good isolation while input reflection coefficient and realized gain results prove system’s scanning, filtering and communication capabilities. This system is new that it gathers the undelay/interweave operation in a single design and when considering its large number of operation modes it looks adequate for many cognitive radio applications.

“…PIN diodes are widely used as switching elements in reconfigurable antennas [17], [18]. In this design, six HPND-4005 PIN diodes [19] are inserted to select its mode of operation. Reverse/forward biasing of PIN diode leads the diode to act as open/short circuit.…”

A frequency reconfigurable antenna is presented in this paper as a novel single port system gathering the functionalities of both underlay and interweave cognitive radio. This 25×30×0.8 mm3 system involves a wide slot antenna to cover the ultra wide band (UWB) range with resonating stubs that are used to prohibit/work-only-in specific bands within the UWB frequencies. Here, six positive intrinsic negative (PIN) diodes are used to decide the active sections of the antenna that leads to select its operation as UWB/filtering/multiband antenna. Diodes' configuration results in eight useful operation modes that include a scanning mode, four single band-notch modes and three dual band communication modes. The scanning mode covers the entire UWB range while one of the bands allocated for WiMax, Cband, WLAN or Xband is to be excluded in each of the band-notch modes. On the other hand, each communaication mode is able to work in one of the ranges that cover WiMax/Cband, Cband/WLAN or Xband/international telecommunication union (ITU). S11, realized gain, voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) outcomes of this design that is simulated by computer simulation technology (CST) v.10 all confirms the proposed system's ability to work in the intended modes. Its novelity to work as interweave/underlay cognitive radio system, highly candidates this design to address many of the UWB communication issues related interference and multiband operation

“…MIMO, in conjugate with ultra-wide band (UWB) technology and its license-free utilization over the 3.1-10.6 GHz range approved by federal communications commission (FCC) in 2002, looks optimum to fulfill the high data rates needs of users in modern wireless communication [3]. However, what rises to disturb the UWB MIMO systems is having other wireless technologies that coexist in the UWB operation area of frequencies [4] and thus affect the quality of communications. Fortunately,…”

This paper presents a four-element frequency reconfigurable antenna system that is novel in terms of gathering both underlay and interweave cognitive radio in a single multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) design. Built on a 50×38×0.8 mm3 Rogers RT/Duroid 5880 substrate, this system is constructed of two scanning elements to sense ultra-wide band (UWB) with controllable band notching capabilities and two elements act as communication antennas. Eighteen MIMO modes can be provided depending on the state of the five positive-intrinsic-negative (PIN) diodes in each sensing antenna and the four PIN diodes in each communication antenna. These include a scanning UWB mode, fourteen modes to notch WiMax/Cband/<a name="_Hlk120169348"></a>wireless local area network (WLAN)/Xband/ITU in single/dual/triple/quad band rejection states and three interweave modes where each targeting one of the regions of WiMax/Cband/WLAN. Simulated by CST v.10; results like input reflection coefficient and realized gain verify system's capability to work in each operation mode. Moreover, mutual coupling, envelope correlation coefficient and diversity gain all evidence the performance of the proposed system as a MIMO system. Results, simple and compact profile, wide and flexile range of MIMO operation modes in line with the novelty to handle both underlay and interweave cognitive radio all nominate this system as promising to fulfill the needs of modern wireless communications.
