Abstract
The increased interest in fractal antennas is due to their possible application in multi-band wireless communication devices. The fractal antenna is formed by applying a generator shape repetitively at a constant scale factor and results in an antenna with log-periodic characteristics. By utilizing the selfsimilar nature of the fractal shape, one can develop some fast approximation techniques.
