Abstract

A Koch fractal microstrip Rectangular patch antenna fortriband wireless Applicationsis presented. Significant reduction
of antenna size can be realized when the Koch fractal microstrip antenna used instead of conventional rectangular microstrip patch
antenna. In this paper side of the rectangular patch replace by Koch curve and Rotating koch fractal rectangular slot is added at the
centre of the rectangular patch for the good circular polarazation . The Axial ratio is 3 dB down for triple band also return loss
values below -10 dB for frequency 1.52GHz,2.04GHz2.43GHz respectively. The antenna printed on a dielectric substrate FR4,
dimension of patch is (45mmx58mm), relative permittivity εr =4.4 and h=1.6mm. This antenna simulated using HFSS software.
