Study of CPW‐fed monopole antenna with circular and rectangular fractal shape radiator element is proposed. By using fractal slot, new design antennas have the wide measured return loss bandwidth. In addition, the omnidirectional radiation patterns of the design antennas covering the entire frequency range have been obtained. Several properties of the antennas such as impedance bandwidth, radiation patterns, and gain have been investigated numerically and experimentally in detail. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
