Abstract :
We present printed modified Sierpinski triangle and carpet monopole antennas. To reduce the overall size of the Sierpinski gasket antenna, the ground plane is printed on the backside of the substrate. The Sierpinski triangle gasket is made and compared with the modified Sierpinski triangle and carpet or truncated triangle gasket monopole antennas.
