Pattern Reconfigurable Antenna for VANET, Wi-Fi, and WiMAX Wireless Communication Systems

This work presents the design and analysis of a beam switching antenna for VANET, Wi-Fi, and WiMAX wireless communication systems. The proposed reconfigurable antenna is powered by a coaxial cable and consists of a circular patch, six fish-shaped radiating elements, and a circular planar ground. The...
