More Information
Summary:A meander line antenna is provided to vary lengths of a plurality of meander lines by electrically connecting or blocking the meander lines by using an MEMS(Micro Electro Mechanical System) switch. A meander line antenna includes a dielectric substrate, first and second meander lines(131,133), a feed unit(141), and a first switch(121). The first and second meander lines are formed on the dielectric substrate in a meander line-shaped conductor pattern. The feed unit feeds a signal to the first meander line. The first switch electrically controls the first meander line and the second meander line. The meander line antenna further includes a short unit(143) which shorts the first meander line and a ground surface.
