Abstract

A dual wide-band CPW-fed modified Koch fractal printed slot antenna, suitable for WLAN and WiMAX operations, is proposed in this paper. Here, the operating frequency of a triangular slot antenna is lowered by the Koch iteration technique resulting in a compact antenna. Studies on the impedance and radiation characteristics of the proposed antenna indicate that a modified Koch fractal slot antenna has an impedance bandwidth from 2.38 to 3.95 GHz and 4.95-6.05 GHz covering 2.4/5.2/5.8 GHz WLAN bands and the 2.5/3.5/5.5 GHz WiMAX bands. The antenna exhibits omnidirectional radiation coverage with a gain better than 2.0 dBi in the entire operating band. Empirical relations are deduced and compared with the results.
