Analysis of fractal antenna for ultra wideband application

Abstract

Aims of this study are to design a simple and compact microstrip-fed Ultra Wide Band (UWB) printed fractal antenna and analyze the performance of the antenna for different iterations. A second iteration of a triangle patch antenna is proposed to perform UWB. Based on the result, the proposed antenna occupies about 6.73 GHz bandwidth covering 3.52-10.24 GHz. The bandwidth is increased about 54.15% for the first iteration of proposed antenna and 69.5% increased for second iteration. A radiation pattern in H-plane and E-plane is also obtained. H-plane of radiation pattern is performed as omni directional and E-plane perfomed like a dipole antenna. Coplanar wave guide is approached to obtain ultra wideband. © Maxwell Scientific Organization, 2014.
