Abstract: In this paper an Archimedean spiral reconfigurable antenna is presented for wireless communication applications of LTE 33-37, Mobile terminals, industrial, scientific and medical group (ISM), PCS Band, UMTS, Widespread Tunable Range, Defense and scientific, IOT, Radio Altimeters etc., The Dimension of designed proposed antenna are 40mm×35 mm on FR4 epoxy with thickness of 0.8 and dielectric constant 4.4. The proposed antenna takes a spiral element fed by a feeding line. For switching purpose, PIN diodes are utilized in this design. The proposed antenna can be operating at different frequencies basing on the Switching ON and OFF state of PIN Diodes.The study has shown that the designed antenna can reduce the complete antenna size and improving the bandwidth and also operating at different frequencies. There is a good matching in between measured and simulated results.
