ACS Fed with Fractal Antenna Using Dual Band Operation for Wireless Application

Abstract

In this article, an asymmetrical co- planar strip (ACS) fed with a fractal micro strip type antenna was designed using dual band operation for wireless application. Using HFSS software, the simulation demonstrates that the fractal antenna of the micro-strip type has good capacity for size reduction. A L-shaped slot is subtracted from the ground plane. The radiating element seems to have an impedance bandwidth of −10 dB. The frequencies obtained are 2.372 GHz and 5.172 GHz. The proposed antenna is 20 mm2 and constructed using FR-4 substrate that are 1.6 mm thick. The proposed antenna is used for applications like ISM and wireless local area networks.
