Author’s Approaches to Fractal Engineering and the Philosophy of Fractal Engineering: Fractal Radio Systems and International Priorities in the Study of Fractal Applications in Radio Electronics

The paper discusses the main directions of the introduction of textures, fractals, fractional operators, dynamic chaos and methods of nonlinear dynamics to create new information (breakthrough) technologies. The research is carried out in the fundamental scientific direction “Fractal radio physics and fractal radio electronics: design of fractal radio systems”, initiated and developed by the author in V.A. Kotel’nikov IREE RAS from 1979 to the present. Then a joint laboratory on fractal technologies in Jinan University, Guangzhou, China was established. The relevance of these studies is related to the need for a more accurate description of all real processes occurring in radio physical and radio engineering systems: taking into account the hereditarity (memory), non-Gaussianity and scaling of physical signals and fields. The concepts of fractal engineering are introduced for the first time.
