Abstract

In this research paper, a rectangular fractal antenna is designed which may be used for IRNSS based smart city applications in India. For tracking and positioning applications, the government of India has developed its own navigation system which is called Indian Regional Navigational Satellite System (IRNSS). To design an antenna for such an application is desirable. For the upcoming smart cities in India, the IRNSS will play a vital role in terms of traffic management, intelligent transportation, vehicle tracking and disaster management. A rectangular fractal antenna based on Sierpinski carpet antenna geometry for dual band resonant frequencies is simulated and tested. The antenna has operational frequencies at 2492.08 MHz (S-band) and 1176.45 MHz (L5-band) at return loss of −24.323 dB and −13.41dB respectively.
