Abstract

One of the methods for constructing fractal antenna arrays, based on ideas of fractal geometry is considered. General algorithms for synthesis of fractal arrays are presented. Results of using the atomic functions in algorithms of ring fractal antenna array analysis and synthesis are shown.
