Abstract

This paper presents a beam switched antenna using inverted F antenna for mobile terminal application in satellite communication. The antenna produces unidirectional radiation patterns in yz-plane which can be switched in two directions using a simple feeding circuit. This paper discusses the prototype antenna as well as the feeding circuit which is fabricated to demonstrate the switching of the beam patterns in vertical plane.
