A Pixel-based Reconfigurable Antenna Design for Fluid Antenna Systems
Fluid Antenna Systems (FASs) have recently been proposed for enhancing the performance of wireless communication. Previous antenna designs to meet the requirements of FAS have been based on mechanically movable or liquid antennas and therefore have limited reconfiguration speeds. In this paper, we propose a design for a pixel-based reconfigurable antenna (PRA) that meets the requirements of FAS and the required switching speed. It can provide 12 FAS ports across 1/2 wavelength and consists of an E-slot patch antenna and an upper reconfigurable pixel layer with 6 RF switches. Simulation and experimental results from a prototype operating at 2.5 GHz demonstrate that the design can meet the requirements of FAS including port correlation with matched impedance.
