Abstract

In the present paper a Koch fractal loop antenna is described using modified ground techniques for the multiband applications. A Koch fractal loop antenna is printed on dielectric substrate. The return loss value at each multiple resonating frequencies have been studied and improved for higher iterations of the Koch fractal loop antenna with the use of modified ground feed techniques. Theses antennas have been modeled and simulated using CST microwave studio software. The results of the simulations have been shown and compared for every iteration of Koch fractal loop antenna.
