An ANN Solution for Generalized Sierpinski Fractal Antenna

A neural network (NN) based analysis model is developed for locating the operating frequencies of generalized Sierpinski fractal antenna. The developed model can locate the operating frequencies of standard as well as perturbed antennas. The performance of the neural model is validated with simulations as well as with results reported in literature.
