Abstract :
This paper presents the new shape of fractal tree antenna for multiband applications by reconfigure the shape of fractal tree antenna using PIN diode switches. The proposed antenna covers the service bands such as WLAN (2.4-2.48) GHz and Wi-MAX (3.4 to 3.8) GHz during its operation and also operates some other frequencies between 2.4GHz to 3.8GHz. The designed antenna is reconfigured by using PIN diodes.
