Miniaturization of a Koch-Type Fractal Antenna for Wi-Fi Applications

  • Dmitrii Tumakov,
  • Dmitry Chikrin and
  • Petr Kokunin

Koch-type wire dipole antennas are considered herein. In the case of a first-order prefractal, such antennas differ from a Koch-type dipole by the position of the central vertex of the dipole arm. Earlier, we investigated the dependence of the base f...
