$1RYHO+ -shape Fractal Antenna for Wideband Communications

In this paper, a noveO��+ -shaped Fractal antenna is proposed for wideband applic ations. The proposed antenna is made of iterations RID��+ -shape around the base shape with 90 0 rotations in each step. Results show that the proposed antenna achieves a wid e bandwidth ranging from 880 MHz to 2720 MHz (102%). The simple structure of the proposed antenna makes it appropriate for many wireless communications such as RFID, GPS, DCS-1800, PCS -1900, IMT -2000/UMTS, ISM (including WLAN), WiFi and Bluetooth. Details of the proposed antenna design are presented and discussed.
