Abstract :
This paper proposes a new array of fractal antennas for use in wireless communication systems. The proposed array is designed and simulated by HFSS software with propagation characteristics in the frequency range between 1 and 3 GHz for return loss and radiation patterns. The measured and simulated results of the proposed antenna arrays are presented.
