Superstrate configurations for a MEMS reconfigurable pixelated patch antenna for CLAS

The experimental and simulation studies of an aperture coupled reconfigurable pixelated patch antenna for CLAS applications is presented. The antenna active dimensions are reconfigured to attain a wide swath of bandwidths within the 1-2 GHz frequency range. Simulated return loss bandwidths are between 8%-26% while measured bandwidths are between 6%-24% when the antenna is reconfigured from low to high frequency bands.
