Advantages and Disadvantages of Fractal Antenna
This page covers advantages and disadvantages of Fractal Antenna. It mentions Fractal Antenna advantages and Fractal Antenna disadvantages.
Refer Fractal antenna basics>> for more information on this type of antenna.
Fractal Antenna advantages
Following points summarize Fractal Antenna advantages:
➨Miniaturization
➨Better matching of input impedance
➨One antenna is sufficient to take care of
multiple bands both narrowband and wideband.
➨It provides consistent performance over huge frequency
range. Hence fractal antenna is considered to be frequency independent.
➨There will be reduced mutual coupling in array antennas made using
fractal geometrical approach.
Fractal Antenna disadvantages
Following points summarize Fractal Antenna disadvantages:
➨Complexity involved in the design and manufacturing process.
➨Numerical limitations
➨Gain Loss
➨After few iterations in the fractal antenna design
simulation benefits of this technology based approach will diminish.
