Element Impedance Variations in Fractal Arrays


R. Martin, R. Haupt

Pennsylvania state University

Fractal arrays utilize irregular spacing of antenna elements. The nonuniformity of the array causes variations in element coupling when compared to a uniform array of comparable size. Non-uniform coupling will have a great affect on the input impedance of the elements, which in turn, will have a great affect on the individual element patterns. This paper presents resultant element impedances associated with planar dipole fractal arrays.
