Abstract

Objectives: The objective of this study is to design and construct a patch antenna with frequency configurability by integrating metamaterial components. Method: To achieve frequency configurability in the patch antenna, a method is employed whereby a PIN diode is strategically placed within the metamaterial gap. Findings: The findings of this study indicate that when the diode is in the OFF state, the frequency-configurable patch antenna can operate within two distinct frequency bands, specifically at 4.3GHz and 7.7GHz. However, when the diodes are switched ON, the antenna is capable of operating within three distinct frequency bands, namely 4.3GHz, 5.7GHz, and 7.7GHz. Novelty: The novelty of this work lies in the unique method employed to achieve frequency configurability in the patch antenna, which involves the strategic placement of a PIN diode within the metamaterial gap. This innovative approach allows for the antenna to switch between different frequency bands, enhancing its versatility and performance compared to conventional designs.
