Implementation of printed microstrip apollonian gasket fractal antenna for multi band wireless applications

Abstract

The present paper deals with implementation of printed microstrip apollonian gasket fractal antenna circuit for wireless applications. Design of fractal antenna and its first three iterations were presented. Simulation of fractal antenna is made using HFSS 13.0 software and the Antenna has been designed on FR4 substrate εr = 4.4 and thickness 1.5 mm. implementation is made on FR4 material. The antenna has been fabricated and tested using VNA. The return loss, VSWR and impedance curves were obtained. The simulation and experimental results were compared found within the acceptable range. This antenna can be used for GPS, PCS, Vehicular radar and imaging system applications.
