Abstract: A low cost dual band fractal antenna with Defected ground Structure resonating at the frequencies of 5.4GHz and 8.8GHz is presented. The resonating frequencies serves the need of wireless communication systems in the C and X bands. Fr4 epoxy is been used as substrate which can provide a high gain of 9.39dB and 8.3dB can be achieved at the operating frequencies. The antenna is having a dimension of 45mm×45mm×1.6mm which indeed is very small making a proposed antenna a compact one. To feed the antenna a micro strip is taken and is inserted in the patch for proper impedance matching. Proposed antenna is consisting a circular patch with perforated perimeter and the ground plane is also truncated at the four corners and a fractal grid is etched at the centre of the ground plane which will aid in enhanced radiation and in turn increase the gain of the antenna.

Keywords: Perforated Patch, Fractal, Dual Band, High Gain.
