Abstract:

 In this paper, we propose Sierpinski square fractal antenna in which the Sierpinski approach is used to give wide-band characteristics. The results show that the return loss characteristics and VSWR improves as we move on to next iterations. The comparison of results is given for the antenna when used with finite and infinite ground planes. Its applications are in the field of short range and outdoor base communications.

Keywords:

Sierpinski, wide-band.
