Abstract :
This paper presents a microstrip line fed fractal slot antenna. Koch snowflake fractal slot are used as a resort to achieve bandwidth enhancement. By increasing the iteration order (IO), the bandwidth can be significantly broaden. Both simulation and measurement are consistent with this theory.
