Analysis and Simulation of Sierpinski Carpet Type Fractal Multiband Antenna for Wide Band Applications

Smrity Dwivedi

Micro strip patch antennas became very popular because of planer profile, ease of analysis and fabrication, compatibility with integrated circuit technology & their attractive radiation characteristics. Here, in this particular paper, author main focus is on fractal based rectangular microstrip patch antenna, whose thickness is 1.6mm and substrate material Flame Retardant 4 (FR-4) with a dielectric constant of approximately 4.4, is a line feed and has a partial ground plane. After simulation, the antenna performance characteristics such as antenna input impedance, VSWR, Return Loss are analysed and discussed in this paper. This antenna is used as a mobile antenna and Wi-Fi antenna for communication purposes like WiMax and WiFi. Use of fractal antenna can meet the need of all modern communication with a boom in an era of todays technologies with thin section, small size, being easy to manufacture and low price.
