Abstract:
This paper presents a new printed switched array antenna suitable for
indoor mobile communications. The antenna uses printed active elements and
produces either omni-directional or many directional overlapping patterns. The
omni-directionality is needed in order to implement the collision avoidance
algorithms in next generation wireless systems, while directional patterns are
needed to effectively confront the problems induced by the noisy indoor channel
to the highly demanding wireless applications. An electromagnetic simulation
tool was used to evaluate the antenna design.
