Abstract

Frequency tunability is studied using a 2-element, low-profile, Yagi antenna. The antenna is comprised of a folded driven element and a straight director element with a low-profile approach using a 0.018 spacing between the elements. In the antenna design, the potential tunable frequency is found by changing the director length to shift the frequency. By changing the director length, a total tunable bandwidth of 43.2% is achieved. This tunable frequency ranges from 1.98 GHz to 3.07 GHz with realized gain values above 4.71 dBi.
