Miniaturization of Resonator based on Moore Fractal
Abstract: This paper presents
the simulation and fabrication of miniaturized half wavelength resonator design
using Moore fractal iteration technique. These resonators have been prepared
for wirelessapplication at a centre frequency of 2.45GHz using a substrate with
dielectric constant of 2.2. The size and performance are compared with the
conventional half wavelength open line resonator. It can be shownthat the Moore
fractal iteration technique able to reduce 46% of the size of conventional half
wavelength resonator through first iteration, and 30% through second iteration
while maintaining the resonance performance. The resonators have been
fabricated using conventional printed circuit board facilities not specialized
in microwave devices. However, the unloaded Q-value of the Moore structure
generally much lower compared the open line type.
