ABSTRACT:
A printed circuit board antenna is provided which includes an electronic switch (38) whereby a single compact radiating structure consisting of a split dipole antenna (10) with associated balun structure (11) may be selectively driven in either of two modes to provide orthogonal polarization and pattern diversity: as a split dipole antenna with a quarter wave balun relying on the split dipole antenna (10) as the radiating element; or as a top-loaded monopole relying on the quarter wave balun structure (11) as the radiating element against a ground plane (12). Orthogonal polarization and pattern diversity are achieved as a result of the mutually perpendicular orientations of the split dipole antenna (10) and its integral balun structure (11).
