Abstract :
Fractal antennas have been shown to be capable of both multiple and wideband operations. The University of Birmingham has investigated several novel fractal-based antenna elements. In this paper, an overview of our recent developments is presented, which includes the multiband halved and shorted Sierpinski gasket PIFA, the wideband stacked Sierpinski carpet dipole antenna and two new fractal-based monopoles.
