In this article, A Sierpenski based octagonal carpet fractal antenna is introduced for quad‐band applications. The proposed antenna developed with FR‐4 substrate material with relative permittivity of 4.4, thickness chosen is 1.6 mm and co‐planar waveguide feed is used in this design. The antenna is designed, simulated with computer simulation technology studio suite, printed and tested. The measurement results of proposed antenna resonates at 2.4, 4.45, 9.1, 10.24, 12.46 GHz and are well suited for C‐band(2.4 GHz), L‐band (4.45 GHz), X‐band (9.1 GHz, 10.24 GHz), Ku‐band (12.46 GHz) applications. Good agreement between the results of simulation and measurement is observed with applications.
