The Multiband Fractal Antenna on Polymer Substrate Prepared by Using Inkjet Print Technology Based on Silver Nanoparticles

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper described the use of inkjet printing to design multiband fractal antenna based on Sierpinski arrowhead curve architecture. The antenna is printed using silver nanoparticles on a plastic substrate PET (Polyethylene terephthalate). Using a combination of printing technology and fractal geometry to achieve very advanced parameters in three frequency bands 650 MHz, 1,57 GHz and 2,5 GHz. Multiband antenna may find application in specific portable devices, where it would be possible to implement the antenna housing facilities in the form of printing.
