Experimental Analysis of a Wideband Pattern Diversity Antenna With Compact Reconfigurable CPW-to-Slotline Transition Feed

A wideband antenna with a reconfigurable coplanar waveguide (CPW)-to-slotline transition feed is proposed for pattern diversity applications. The feed provides three modes -CPW feed, left slotline (LS) feed and right slotline (RS) feed- without extra matching structures. Changes between modes are controlled by only two p-I-n diodes. Features of the proposed switchable feed include compact size and simple bias circuit. The equivalent transmission line model is used in the analysis of the proposed design. A prototype of the proposed antenna is fabricated, tested, and the obtained results including reflection coefficient, radiation patterns and gains, are present. A measurement of channel capacity is carried out to prove the benefit of pattern diversity when using the proposed antenna in both line-of-sight (LOS) and non-line-of-sight (NLOS) communication scenarios.
