Performance Tested of Micro Strip Fractal Antenna for Wireless Communication

Shashi Bhushan Kumar, Dr.P.K. Singhal

Abstract


The multiband behavior of fractal Sierpinski antenna is described in this paper. Since there is great demand of multiband antenna in many microwave application like wireless, wimax, defense and other many applications. Proposed microstrip fractal patch antenna is fabricated on a printed circuit board with coaxial feed microstrip fractal antenna and effect of 1st iteration is analyzed. In this paper simulated and measured results are compared & shown. Proposed antenna has design frequency of 3.2 Ghz and IE3D software is used for simulation, which is based on method of moment. Both experimental & simulated result show that similarity properties of fractal shapes are translated into its electromagnetic behavior for multifrequency application. Simulated and measured result are shown for better understanding.
