Design of a Wideband CPW Fed Fractal Antenna for Satellite Communication

A novel ‘T’ square wideband fractal antenna is proposed for satellite communication. The Wideband achieved through the design and CPW feed. At first, a conventional square-shaped patch designed. Then replaced by Type-I to achieve wideband. Finally, Type-II with an L-Shaped boundary used enhance bandwidth greater extent. gain of ranges from 4 dB 6.3 entire frequency range 6.2 GHz 14 GHz. radiation efficiency noticed up 84%. resonates well throughout VSWR less than 2. having such wide band characteristic can be found suitable applications like earth exploration satellites, fixed radiolocation, maritime radio navigation, aeronautical navigation. metal reflector also introduced at bottom produce unidirectional pattern. This increases 9.8 dBi front-to-back ratio above 20 dB. fabricated measurement results are in good agreement simulation results.
