Design of photonic band gap aperture coupled fractal shape tri-band active antenna

Microwavefrequencies have a rangeof 300MHz to 300GHz, while according toFederal Communications commission (FCC) and Industrial, Scintific, Medical (ISM) band only some specific frequencies can be used for industrial applications;for instance 0.915 GHz, 1.8 GHz and 2.45 GHz were selected. Based on th...
