Abstract EN
In this paper, we proposed a radiation pattern reconfigurable waveguide slot array antenna using liquid crystal (LC).
Together with the waveguide slot, the designed complementary electric-field-coupled resonator functions like a switch controlled by the dielectric constant of the LC, which can control the antenna element to radiate or not.
Thus, the array factor and radiation pattern can be manipulated.
The proposed antenna was simulated, fabricated, and measured.
Its radiation direction can be reconfigured to 46° or 0° at about 15 GHz.
