Two 2-D natural fractal monopoles generated by electro- deposition are characterized in term of measured return loss. Depending on their difierent shapes, previously reported multi- band behaviour and new ultra-wideband (UWB) characteristics are obtained. Finally, su-cient e-ciencies are measured for both antennas proving their possible use as radiating element.
