Abstract :
The unique geometrical properties of fractals have been proven to be useful to design advanced antennas. Enhanced performance in terms of size, gain or multiband behaviour is observed in fractal-shaped antennas. Here, a small and high directivity antenna based on the Sierpinski bowtie geometry is presented.
