Abstract: Due to congestion and deterioration in the electromagnetic spectrum below 10 GHz. Research is being done on the migration to the millimeter-wave spectrum. In this paper, a novel compact (6.4 x 7 x 0.8) mm3 frequency reconfigurable microstrip patch antenna is introduced, which operates at V, Q, and E-Bands. A P-I-N diode positioned between the primary patch and the secondary patch controls the frequency re-configurability and the antenna's gain and efficiency improvement. The patches are made of copper material printed on a Rogers RT5880LZ with a thickness, relative permittivity, and loss tang of 0.8 mm, 2.2, and 0.0009. An optimum gain and efficiency have been obtained at 52.4 GHz, 9 dB and 95.5 percent, and with a little less 8.64 dB and 95 percent, with a low side lobe level (SLL) of -19.8 dB at 57.8 GHz and a broad bandwidth of 4.6 GHz at 83 GHz, respectively. The antenna is designed using CST Studio software.
