In this work two types of reflector configurations, viz. straight and folded, are investigated. It is shown that the folded reflector configuration is 20% more compact and it results in about 1.5 dB improvement in front-to-back ratio w.r.t. the straight reflector configuration at the cost of slight degradation in the isolation level. The reason behind this degradation is further investigated by analyzing the near field along the antenna width. It is found that the gap between the reflector cause the near field coupling between the PPMAs in the case of folded reflector.","PeriodicalId":397541,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE Applied Electromagnetics Conference (AEMC)","volume":"67 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127108898","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There have been increasing demands for antenna design that possess features such as size, low profile, multiband, broadband, low cost etc. Fractal antennas have entered the view of many as a very promising solution. Fractals were the term originally defined by Mandelbrot to describe the family of complex structures, which means broken or irregular fragments that possess an inherent similarity in their geometrical structure. In this paper, we have proposed a crown fractal antenna. It has been observed that simulated and experimental results of the proposed antenna have shown dual band behavior. The same geometry had proposed initially, but the substrate material used was RT-DUROID while we used FR-4 substrate here, which reduces the cost.","PeriodicalId":397541,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE Applied Electromagnetics Conference (AEMC)","volume":"132 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128478046","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
