Abstract
This paper discusses reconfigurable antennas using variable capacitors or varactors to achieve reconfiguration. We propose graph models as tools to understand reconfigurable antenna topologies and their configurations. Guidelines are set to model this type of reconfigurable antennas using graphs and examples are studied to investigate their optimal performance.
