%0 Journal Article %T Design of Microstrip Antenna using Sierpinski Carpet Fractal %A Payal %A Nikhil Aggarwal %J International Journal of Innovative Technology and Exploring Engineering %D 2013 %I IJITEE %X In this paper authors propose a sierpinski carpet fractal rectangular microstrip antenna. By introducing sierpinski carpet fractal in the rectangular microstrip antenna, the size of the antenna is reduced significantly and the radiation characteristics like gain, directivity, antenna efficiency, radiation efficiency and impedance bandwidth are improved. %K Microstrip antennas %K fractal geometry %K sierpinski carpet fractal high gain and broad band. %U http://www.ijitee.org/attachments/File/v3i4/D1167093413.pdf
