Abstract: The paper presents a triple band reconfigurable antenna is designed for various wireless applications. The BAR 64-02 V PIN diode is used for attaining the reconfigurability of antenna. The antenna is compact in size and can be applicable for WLAN/ Bluetooth/ ISM/GPS/ GLONASS/GALILEO (2.4-2.48GHz) and LTE42/43 (3.4-3.8GHz) applications. This antenna is reconfigurable up to three frequency bands ranging 2 GHz to 5 GHz and simulated using ANSYS HFSS software and fabricated on a FR-4 epoxy substrate with 30×30 mm2 dimensions. The proposed antenna operates in the frequency range of 2.4 to 2.52 GHz, 3.06 to 3.13 GHz, 3.37 to 3.71 GHz when diode is ON state and the antenna operates in the range of 2.44 to 2.5 GHz, 3.17 to 3.29 GHz, 3.71 to 3.99 GHz when diode is OFF state.
Keywords: LTE, ISM, PIN diode, Reconfigurable, GLONASS.
