description A pattern reconfigurable antenna offers diverse pattern configurations and beam steering to cater the congested signal environment problem while maintaining the performances and operating frequency, as well as increasing the signal and data security. The pattern reconfigurable antenna using EBG structure is presented in this paper for beam-steering configurations. Most of the previous works proposed the PIN diode on the radiating patches, which caused the degradation of its performances. In this work, the structure offers good efficiency as the RF switches are not embedded to the radiating patches. A dual-band slotted pattern reconfigurable antenna using EBG structure is designed and analyzed. The EBG patches are located at the right and left of the radiating edge of the antenna. The EBG is designed so that its surface wave of band gap covers the radiation of the antenna. As a result, the surface waves excited by the patch antenna are prohibited from propagating by the EBG and caused the radiation pattern to be tilted to another side. The operating frequency of the proposed antenna is 2.45 GHz and 5.8 GHz for the dual-band antenna. The proposed antenna is capable of having beam shifting at three different angles (0°, +26°, and -26°).
