In this paper, Swastik molded fractal radio wire has been proposed which works on L, C and X bands.The proposed antenna is a novel fractal shaped designed antenna which is designed with 3 numbers of iterations after applying Giuseppe geometry and also fed with microstrip feed line technique. Simulation is carried out by using HFSS (Version13). FR4 glass epoxy material is utilized for substrate with relative permittivity 4.4. This proposed antenna is simulated and fabricated, simulated antenna operates at six distinguished resonant frequencies (1.818GHz, 4.636GHz, 5.818GHz, 6.909GHz, 7.727GHz, 9.636GHz), whereas fabricated antenna operates at four resonant frequencies (2.122GHz, 7.79GHz, 7.99GHz, 9.99GHz). The designed simulated antenna shows maximum Reflection coefficient of -25.9446dB and the maximum gain is 9.440dB, whereas fabricated antenna shows maximum Reflection coefficient of -15.33dB. Designed antenna can be used in Wi Max, High speed wireless communications and Satellite Communication.
