A new radiation pattern reconfigurable antenna is designed and fabricated. The antenna is able to radiate in four orthogonal directions in the azimuth plane and sweep the whole azimuth. The radiation pattern reconfigurability is obtained using the passband and stopband characteristics of EBG surfaces which are used to form EBG panels to surround the feeding dipole centered in the structure. Switching between passband and stopband is implemented using active elements in the structure.
