A Novel Shape Memory Alloy Actuator-Based Fluidically Programmable Continuous Frequency Reconfigurable Antenna
A new actuation technique is introduced for overcoming the complexity and radiation performance degradation issues of actuators-based reconfigurable antennas. We employ shape memory alloy (SMAlloy) spring actuators to control the positioning of the fluidic channels, in contrast to the manual filling...
