- In this study, an electronically steerable parasitic array radiator (ESPAR) antenna via analog radio frequency (RF) switches for a single RF chain MIMO system is presented. The proposed antenna elements are spaced at {\\lambda}/64, and the antenna size is miniaturized via a dielectric radome. The optimum reactance load value is calculated via the beamforming load search algorithm. A switch simplifies the design and implementation of the reactance loads and does not require additional complex antenna matching circuits. The measured impedance bandwidth of the proposed ESPAR antenna is 1,500혻MHz (1.75혻GHz??3.25혻GHz). The proposed antenna exhibits a beam pattern that is reconfigurable at 2.48혻GHz due to changes in the reactance value, and the measured peak antenna gain is 4.8혻dBi. The reception performance is measured by using a 4 × 4 BPSK signal. The measured average SNR is 17혻dB when using the proposed ESPAR antenna as a transmitter, and the average SNR is 16.7혻dB when using a four-conventional monopole antenna.
