Elliptically Slotted Self-affine 8-Shaped Fractal Multiband Antenna

Antennas in modern telecommunication systems require smaller dimensions and wider bandwidth. The authors have presented the self-affined multiband elliptically slotted 8-shaped fractal antenna. The elliptically slotted 8-shaped fractal antenna has been designed by iterated function system (IFS) up to the second iteration. The resonance frequencies of the second iteration of (K2) fractal antenna are 2.462, 3.329, 3.827, and 4.775 GHz with VSWR 1.359, 1.339, 1.221, and 1.911, respectively. The proposed fractal antenna (K2) size is reduced to 19.5 % from base structure (K0). Proposed fractal antenna (K2) obtained a bandwidth of 592 MHz. IE3D software has been used for simulation in this paper.
