Patent Images
1. A reconfigurable antenna comprising two or more mutually coupled radiating elements, each radiating element being connected to a respective control module, wherein each control module comprises two or more adaptive matching circuits configured for independent tuning of the frequency band of the respective radiating element;
- and wherein the control modules each comprise a controller for selective operation of the connected radiating element in each of the following states;
a driven state, a floating state and a ground state;
wherein each radiating element has an associated feed port; and
wherein a first feed port is provided between a first of the radiating elements and a first respective control module and a second feed port is provided between a second of the radiating elements and a second respective control module.
