Abstract

Modern communication systems demand antennas with (1) compact size, (2) low profile, and (3) multi or broadband characteristics without altering antenna properties moreover, if possible enhancement should obtain. “The Fractal Antenna” operates at all ideal characteristics. So the present paper considers different fractal geometries, and its operation as antenna
