摘要
The purpose of this paper is to introduce the concept of fractals and its use in antenna arrays for obtaining multiband property. One type of fractals namely, Cantor set is investigated. Cantor set is used in linear array antenna design. Therefore, this array know fractal Cantor linear array antenna. A comparison with conventional non-fractal linear array antenna is made regarding the beamwidth, directivity, and side lobe level. MATLAB programming language version 7.2 (R2006a) is used to simulate the fractal and conventional non-fractal linear array antenna and their radiation pattern.
