The SMA's thermally induced shape-memory behavior allows reconfiguration in response to temperature changes without the need for electronic or optical control circuits, thus avoiding issues such as self-interference problem, high costs, regular maintenance requirements, and durability concerns. In the wideband mode, measured results show that Port 1 covers 4.7-10.5 GHz and Port 2 covers 4.5-8.3 GHz, which closely agrees with simulations. When the SMA is activated by heat, the antenna switches to the narrowband mode, where Port 1 operates at 7.6 and 9.5 GHz, and Port 2 operates at 8.9 GHz. A ground-plane isolation element ensures low coupling between the ports, with the envelope correlation coefficient remaining below 0.1 across all configurations. The antenna reaches a peak gain of 5.2 dBi and maintains consistent performance through repeated switching. By combining spiral-shaped geometry with a responsive smart material, this work presents a novel and efficient approach for designing reconfigurable dual-port antennas suitable for future wireless technologies.
