Abstract :
This present study deals with the designing aspects of a planar hexagonal patch ultra wideband antenna on metamaterial substrate operating in the millimetre frequency band using fractal structure. The presented design is having a bandwidth of around 13 GHz (22.7 GHz - 35.7 GHz). The CPW feeding system enables the design for a proper matching and signal distribution. The use of fractal structure enabled the intended current distribution around the edges of the proposed antenna structure with widened bandwidth.
