title: A Miniaturization Process of an Antenna With Pre-Fractal Geometry by Means of a Particle Swarm Optimization
ispublished: pub
subjects: TU
full_text_status: public
abstract: This work presents a synthesis procedure for designing miniaturized pre-fractal antennas for wireless applications. In order to minimize the linear dimensions of the antenna and to obtain Voltage Standing Wave Ratio values within specifications, the device configuration has been synthesized by defining a suitable building pre- fractal geometry tuned through a customized Particle Swarm Optimizer. This is the author's version of the final version available at IEEE.
