Abstract

In this paper, we have achieved a compact multiband fractal antenna based on Sierpinski carpet geometry. The simulation of the proposed antenna is done by CST Microwave Studio EM simulation software. The Sierpinski carpet fractal antenna proves that it is capable to create multiband frequencies. There are four resonant frequencies appeared at 0.85 GHz, 1.83 GHz, 2.13 GHz and 2.68 GHz. Simulated results indicates that the return loss is better than 15 dB, the VSWR is less than 1.3,the directivity is greater than 6dBi&the gain is more than 6dB in each band. So this fractal antenna can be suitable for fixed microwave&aviation applications.

Abstract

This article investigates, from electromagnetic simulation, the effects on gain and efficiency of a patch antenna loaded with split ring resonators. It is observed that it leads to lowering of resonant frequency; some mismatch resulting in a slight degradation of the impedance bandwidth and improvement of gain and efficiency.

Keywords
