Abstract EN
A novel polarization-reconfigurable conical helical antenna based on the liquid metal is presented.
The antenna is implemented by using truncated structure, variable pitch angle, a matching stub, and a mechanical autorotation device.
The experimental results show that a good agreement between simulations and measurements is obtained.
The gain of the antenna achieves higher than 8 dBi in the work band (1525–1660.5 MHz), and the 3 dB axial ratio (AR) bandwidth reaches 410 MHz.
The polarization mode of the antenna can be switched between right-hand and left-hand circular polarization.
