Abstract

There is an overview of foreign works, devoted to fractal antennas has made in this paper. A brief introduction to fractal geometry has presented and some general information about fractal antennas has given. A simple classification of proposed type of fractal antennas has performed. The antennas with logoperiodic and multiband behavior has described: various modifications of Sierpinsky gasket and Sierpinsky carpet, multicircular loop antennas, tree-like antennas and some others. The antennas with low resonant frequencies are described: Koch curve, Hilbert curve, fractal-edge patch antennas. Some benefits and disadvantages of fractal antennas are presented. The extended list of most important publications about fractal antennas has given.
