Planar, Multifunctional 3D Printed Antennas Using Liquid Metal Parasitics
This paper describes a liquid metal-based multifunctional antenna capable of wideband frequency tuning, dual band operation, and polarization reconfiguration. The radiating elements consist of parasitically-excited plugs of room-temperature liquid metal in 3D printed channels. Syringe pumps flow the...
