Abstract

In this article, the design of log periodic fractal Koch antenna using the second iteration has been developed for ultra high frequency band applications. The ability to reduce the size as maintaining the performances of the antenna such as input return loss and radiation patterns brings fractal Koch and becomes enticing among researchers. The design of the log periodic fractal Koch antenna has been elaborated in this article. The computer simulation technology software has been used to analyze the performances of the designed antenna. This has been compared between simulation and measurement. The results show that this antenna has been reduced by up to 27% in size from the normal log periodic planar dipole antenna. The performance of the antenna has been compared in terms of return losses, bandwidths, and radiation patterns. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
