Abstract

This paper creatively proposes a new fractal iterative structure of a gradual defect patch and combines it with a rectangular array structure. Aiming at the performance requirements of the UAV system for multi-band compatible antennas, a gradual defect patch fractal array is designed. The radiation performance of the fractal array antenna was simulated by the method of moments, and antenna samples were made and the radiation performance was tested. Both simulation and actual measurement results show that this antenna has a working bandwidth of 5.5 GHz or more, a minimum return loss as low as -44 dB and excellent omnidirectional radiation capability. This antenna is compatible with the GPS system frequency band, Beidou system frequency band, all working frequency bands of the second to fifth generation mobile communication systems and the three working frequency bands of the RFID system, and is expected to be widely used as an unmanned aerial vehicle system antenna.
