Summary:
This paper presents two types of reconfigurable RF-MEMS antennas, which are loaded in part with switches. The former antenna is capable to operate at multiple frequencies by changing its patch size. The latter can switch between orthogonal dual-polarization by changing slotted shape on it. The feasibility and effectiveness of these antennas are verified by experimental results.
