The Behavior of CPW-Fed Sierpinski Curve Fractal Antenna

Abstract

In this paper, the behavior of Coplanar Waveguide (CPW) fed SIERPINSKI curve fractal antenna is studied. The results show that there is a relationship between the iteration number and the resonance frequencies. With increase in the number of iteration the resonance frequency decreases with a constant ratio. The use of fractal structures to design antennas makes them more miniaturized. The simulated results obtained from CADFEKO a Method of Moments (MoM) model based Solver and measurement using Vector Network Analyzer Anritsu MS2026C are in good agreement.
