Abstract
An antenna includes a feeding element and at least one non-feeding element. A vertical distance between each non-feeding element and the feeding element falls within a specified threshold, each non-feeding element includes a first conductor that is grounded, a regulator circuit, and a control switch disposed on the first conductor and configured to control the regulator circuit, where the regulator circuit is configured to regulate a current path length of the non-feeding element. The non-feeding element forms a reflector when the regulator circuit is enabled, or the non-feeding element forms a director when the regulator circuit is disabled. A design in which the reflector and the director are compatible is used such that a combination of one feeding element, M directors and N reflectors is implemented for the antenna to achieve a high directive gain and interference suppression capability.
