  • Abstract
    A Wideband, linearly polarized, microstrip antenna is presented. The antenna has two elements connected to a series feeding network and excited by a coaxial connector. Each element is based on the fractal Koch snowflake. Among other advantages, the proposed antenna has the ability of elevation scanning as a function of frequency.
