Single-, Dual- and Triple-band Frequency Reconfigurable Antenna

The paper presents a frequency reconfigurable slot dipole antenna. The antenna is capable of being switched between single-band, dual-band or triple-band operation. The antenna incorporates three pairs of pin-diodes which are located within the dipole arms. The antenna was designed to operate at 2.4 GHz, 3.5 GHz and 5.2 GHz using the aid of CST Microwave Studio. The average measured gains are 1.54, 2.92 and 1.89 dBi for low, mid and high band respectively. A prototype was then constructed in order to verify the performance of the device. A good level of agreement was observed between simulation and measurement

In the drilling process, the actual achievement of the desired final depth is always safely, quickly and without obstacles. Drilling operations are activities that can not be separated from a production well. So the purpose of drilling activities not only to drill safely and efficiently, but also keep a well to be able to produce well. The success of a work of drilling wells through various layers of rock are very dependent on its drilling program planning. Drilling mud is an important factor in the drilling. Drilling speed, efficiency, safety and cost of drilling mud is very dependent on thi
