Abstract

In this paper a compact low profile elliptical fractal patch antenna for high gain and multiband is presented which resembles Lorentz fractal shape. By introducing fractal on ellipse patch multiband applications are achieved. With the help of CST Microwave Studio Suite TM the proposed structure has been designed and analyzed. The simulated results are confirmed experimentally. The suggested antenna has a dimension of 40 × 55 mm2 (L × W) and resonant frequencies obtained are 1.7, 3.2, 3.9, 5.9, 7.8, 8.6, 9.7, 11.4 and 12.6 GHz with VSWR ≤ 2. The aerial is assembled on FR-4 (εr = 4.4) substrate with thickness of substrate 1.6 mm. This antenna holds applications in many satellite communication transmissions, some Wi-Fi devices, cordless telephones, and weather radar systems.
