New Transparent, High Performance Wideband Antenna Enables Covert Electronic Surveillance.


BEDFORD, Mass. -- Fractal Antenna A fractal antenna is an antenna that uses a fractal, self-similar design to maximize the length, or increase the perimeter (on inside sections or the outer structure), of material that can receive or transmit electromagnetic signals within a given total surface area or volume.  Systems, Inc. announces the new patent pending Tranztenna(TM), a powerful, compact antenna system designed for covert intelligence gathering. Tranztenna incorporates patented fractal antenna technology in an optically transparent film that can be placed on a building or vehicle window. The antenna performs over an extremely wide frequency range and provides excellent gain. A single Tranztenna replaces multiple traditional antennas because of its wide frequency range. The antenna is also compact and flexible enough to be easily transported and deployed in field operations.

Tranztenna has inherently 50 Ohms of impedance, and operates with a VSWR VSWR Voltage Standing Wave Ratio
VSWR Vertical Standing Wave Ratio
 of less than 3:1. Optional frequency lowering panels are also available.

About Fractal Antenna Systems

Fractal Antenna Systems, Inc. designs and manufactures antennas for commercial, military, and government sectors. Based on patented technology utilizing fractal geometry fractal geometry, branch of mathematics concerned with irregular patterns made of parts that are in some way similar to the whole, e.g., twigs and tree branches, a property called self-similarity or self-symmetry. , the company's fractal antennas deliver more powerful performance for multi-band and wideband applications than traditional aerial systems, and in much more compact and versatile form factors. Fractal Antenna Systems was founded in 1995 by Dr. Nathan Cohen cohen
