Abstract :
This study presents the operating frequency reconfigurability for the Sierpinski gasket fractal antenna. This design may be a good candidate for RF over fiber (RoF) systems in which the built-in optical systems have already been included. Doped silicon with a suitable laser light is considered as a switching component.
