Abstract

A 3/2 curve fractal dipole antenna was proposed for radio‐frequency identification application, with mirror and photonic bandgap structure. Some properties of the antenna, such as return loss and bandwidth have been simulated and investigated. The results show that the absolute bandwidths of antenna are up to 0.28 GHz and 0.41 GHz at 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz, respectively accordingly the relative bandwidths up to 9.76% and 6.87%. With a prototype fabricated, we also verified the good performance of the antenna through the comparison of measured and simulated results. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
