Dual Band Flower Shaped Fractal Patch Antenna for Remote Health Monitoring

Antennas for wireless applications are on huge demand. In this paper, a 16mm x 31 mm flower-shaped fractal patch antenna is designed and simulated using CST software. The designed antenna operates in 2.45 GHz frequency band called industrial, scientific and medical band (ISM band) and 5.55 GHz band. Designed antenna’s reflection coefficient, VSWR, surface current, gain, and far-field plot are simulated and observed. The designed antenna provides 630 MHz bandwidth in dual-band. This antenna is miniaturized and compacted to be utilized as a dual-band antenna for ISM band and WiMAX services. The presented antenna in this paper is having applications in patient’s remote health monitoring.
