This article presents a center‐feed parasitic circular patch antenna with continuously tuning linear polarization performance. Eutectic gallium‐indium liquid metal alloy is employed to tune the angle of linear polarization continuously. The antenna is feed at the center of a circular patch with a ring slot. The rotational symmetry of the antenna helps maintain the impedance and radiation pattern at different polarization angles. The liquid metal is contained in a 1 × 1 mm channel etched in a polymethyl methacrylate cylinder. The polarization angle is tuned by controlling the location of a short bar of EGaln. The center resonant frequency of the demonstrated antenna is 5.19 GHz with a −10 dB impedance bandwidth of 0.24 GHz.
