In this paper, we present a novel technique to reduce the size of edge-fed microstrip patch antenna. By etching the patch as the Sierpinski carpet, the resonant frequency can be lowered to lower values, and this property can be employed to reduce the size of the conventional patch antenna. The measurement results show, the patch achieved a maximum 33.9% size reduction by the edge-fed Sierpinski Carpet microstrip patch antenna (SCMPA) of the second iteration order, and other performances, such as return loss bandwidth and radiation patterns, were virtually unchanged.
