A novel design of a circular ring microstrip antenna using dual‐reconfigurable perturbation to obtain polarisation agility and diversity is reported. The proposed antenna employs two couples of slots and stubs at a diagonal corner for generating and alternating right‐/left‐handed circular polarisations, respectively. By switching the anti‐parallel bridged pin diodes of the implemented antenna, polarisation agility and diversity are successfully demonstrated.
