The Design of Ceramic Minkowski Fractal Antenna

Abstract:

Antennas play an important role in RFID system. As one of the key technology of RFID, the antenna design decides the RFID system performance. This paper designed a ceramic Minkowski fractal antenna used in RFID system. It used Minkowski fractal structure as the radiation patch and the high performance ceramic material to reduce the antenna size, then improve it with rectangular joint structure in the antenna's ground plate. In this paper, the antenna performance are analyzed in the simulation, In this paper, the antenna performance are analyzed in the simulation, it discussed the thickness of the medium plate and the effect of dielectric constant on the performance of microstrip antenna, finally make antenna samples for testing. The simulation and test results show the antenna designed meet the requirement of RFID applications.
