Minkowski fractal based antenna for Cognitive Radio

A novel Minkowski fractal based antenna is proposed for Cognitive radio applications. The proposed antenna covers the lower band of the cognitive radio spectrum namely WLAN, WiMax band and GSM band. Hairpin bandpass filter integrated line is used for feeding the antenna. The simulated results are compared with the measured results.
