Abstract

In recent years, great demands for an antenna with many falsities like miniaturization, multiband and wideband antenna with high gain and low profile antenna for modern wireless communication services and applications. Fractal antenna paves the way for these requirements. In this survey, we will attempt to study and review the existing fractal antennas designs and to classify them with different techniques used and additional insight into these unique structures with the most used simulation softwares for designing of fractal antenna applications.
