Summary:
In this paper, a validation of the antenna's radiation characteristics by measurements of both impedance and radiation pattern is presented. A x3 experimental scale model is used to assess the effectiveness of the proposed slot-based directivity control built-in antenna system. Both the radiation pattern and VSWR measurements for the antenna system show good agreement with the simulated results. It was confirmed that the proposed antenna system has switch-able radiation patterns while maintaining stable impedance characteristics. Also, radiation efficiency of the proposed antenna system was assessed for Antenna #1 including the effects of a human hand phantom.
