    Abstract

    This paper presents an origami Quadrifilar Helix Antenna (QHA) which could work at different operating frequencies in Ultra High Frequency (UHF) band with different heights for optimum realized gain. This antenna is designed to be applied to space wireless communication with little limitations of storage or transportation due to a compact size. Principle of this design was first validated by the ideal helix antenna model. The simulated frequency reconfigurability of QHA is up to 1.92 GHz, and the height of the folded state is 26% of the height of the unfolded state.
