Abstract

In this article, a compact third iteration inner tapered tree-shaped fractal antenna for ultrawideband applications is presented. The bandwidth is enhanced by using CPW ground plane and increasing the number of iterations. An impedance bandwidth of 4.3–15.5 GHz (113%) is achieved. The proposed third iteration antenna has nearly omnidirectional patterns at its resonance frequencies with an acceptable value of gain. The experimental and simulation results are found to be in good agreement. The proposed antenna has improved return loss performance and miniaturized size. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
