Periodic structures can help in the reduction of mutual coupling by using their capability of
suppressing surface waves propagation in a given frequency range. The purpose of this …

The use of planar soft surfaces to reduce mutual coupling in a new type of planar inverted-F
antenna (PIFA) is demonstrated in this work. The proposed antenna is dual-band, single …

In this paper a multilayer multi-resonator probe-fed microstrip antenna is numerically
investigated using Method of Moments (MoM). The antenna structure includes a feed patch …

A type of electromagnetic bandgap structure is described that is easily parameterized and
can produce a range of square and spiral geometries. Individual electromagnetic bandgap …

EBG structures have the ability of suppressing surface waves within a given frequency
range. The purpose of this work is to use one of the simplest 2D EBG (a planar periodic …

In this communication, the design and experimental results of a multilayer multi-resonator
probe-fed microstrip antenna are presented for wideband applications. The antenna …

In this paper we have investigated the gain enhancement mechanism produced by the
introduction of a truncated periodic structure, in a multilayer configuration, in the substrate of …

The goal of this work is to further investigate on the use of a truncated planar metallic
periodic structure (grounded FSS‐based) to create new resonance frequencies in a patch …

This synopsis presents a design of circularly polarized microstrip antenna with inset feed
and employs Electromagnetic Band Gap (EBG) structure to improve antenna efficiency and …

Traditional multifunctional composite structures are produced by embedding parasitic parts,
such as foil sensors, optical fibers and bulky connectors. As a result, the mechanical …
