Polarization Reconfigurable U-Slot Patch Antenna (2010, methodology): “Several interesting designs have been proposed to solve this problem [9]–[11].”
A Novel Reconfigurable Microstrip Antenna With Switchable Circular Polarization (2007, methodology): “More reconfigurable circularly polarized antennas with the use of p–i–n diodes to achieve the switching mechanism have been presented in [5] and [6].”
A Novel Single-Feed Circular Microstrip Antenna With Reconfigurable Polarization Capability (2008, background): “matching was considered for polarizations in [8], it was not clear how input matching could be achieved by optimizing both polarization senses.”
High-Gain Circularly Polarized Microstrip Patch Antenna With Loading of Shorting Pins (2016, background): “Further, when these shorting pins are replaced with p-i-n diodes, the antennas are able to produce switchable circular polarization by controlling the ON–OFF state of the diodes [6]–[8].”
Design of Polarization Reconfigurable Antenna Using Metasurface (2014, unknown): “In these studies, RF switches such as PIN diode switches [5]–[13], [15]–[20] and MEMS switches [4], [14] were used to electrically switch polarization of the antennas, thus direct-current (DC) biasing circuits were needed to bias the PIN or MEMS switches.”
