Design of a Low-Profile, Frequency- Reconfigurable, and High Gain Antenna Using a Varactor-Loaded AMC Ground

In this paper, a novel planar active artificial magnetic conductor (AAMC) frequency-reconfigurable antenna printed on an FR4 substrate is proposed. Its AAMC metal pattern in a unit cell consists of a compound-five-ring nesting (CFRN) structure. It is loaded with only one varactor diode connected to...
