Minkowski Fractal

A MEMS broadband microstrip patch antenna based on Minkowski fractal boundary is designed. An air layer is designed in the antenna’s high resistance silicon substrate by MEMS technology and microstrip patch antenna with second degree iteration Minkowski fractal boundary is simulated. Then different p on the influence on the broadband performance of the antenna is discussed. The simulation results show that the broadband performance can be gained from microstrip patch antenna with MEMS air layer based on second iteration Minkowski fractal boundary. 23.34% relative bandwidth of the optimized antenna is achieved and the requirement of the broadband communication is satisfied.

This article describes the design of a microstrip patch antenna with radiation pattern reconfigurable characteristic, where two monolithically integrated MEMS switches are utilized. By changing the physical dimension of the antenna, its radiation pattern could be changed. Moreover, we present detailed structures of these RF MEMS switches, whose isolation and insertion loss are-23.12 dB and-0.09 dB at operating frequency, respectively. And the resonant frequency of the antenna is 35.4 GHz and the bandwidth is 6.69%. All the results are simulated.
