Abstract :An ultrawideband antenna array using a right-angled isosceles triangular microstrip antenna as a basic element is presented using inset feed for applications in the Internet of things. A Koch fractal antenna array with defected ground plane is used to generate multiband applications. Further, meander lines are added to increase the equivalent inductance that reduces the size of the antenna and increases the bandwidth and gain. Antenna arrays have been constructed and experimentally studied. The measured results show good agreement with the numerical prediction and wideband operation.
