  • Abstract
    In this paper a novel reduced size and wideband fractal patch antenna is introduced. Because of it´s likeness to butterfly it has been named fractal butterfly patch antenna. By its comparison to conventional square patch antenna more than 68% size reduction at third iteration of fractal is achieved. Then by utilizing a T-probe feeding method, up to 13 % impedance bandwidth (VSWR 2) is obtained as well as 60% reduction in size. Finally a broadband antenna proposed as a miniaturized wide band patch antenna for personal communication systems.
