ABSTRACT:
An antenna (100) includes an antenna radiating element (108) that is at least partially comprised of a conductive fluid (104). A dielectric structure (102) defines at least one cavity (110A,110B) for constraining the conductive fluid. The antenna also includes a fluid control system (116A,116B,118A,118B,120A,120B,122) for selectively adding and removing the conductive fluid from the cavity for controlling a dimension of the antenna radiating element (108). The antenna radiating element (108) can be comprised of a plurality of cavities (110A,110B), with each cavity defining a segment of the antenna radiating element (108).
