Abstract. These hexagonal arrays are becoming increasingly popular, especially for their
applications in the area of wireless communications. The overall objective of this article
has been to use the theoretical foundation developed for the analysis of radiation patterns
and design of the hexagonal arrays. A technique has been developed for the analysis of
radiation patterns from concentric ring arrays. A family of functions, known as
generalized Weierstrass functions, has been shown to play a key role in the theory of
fractal radiation pattern analysis.
Keywords: fractal antenna arrays, fractal antenna radiation patterns, low side-lobe
antennas radiation patterns.
