Abstract
An optically controlled frequency reconfigurable microstrip patch antenna is presented in this paper. S11 measurements show that greater than 85% power is transmitted at each of the three resonant frequencies. Measured radiation patterns for patch antennas using ideal switch states agree with HFSS simulations.Keywords
