Using Electromagnetic Bandgap Superstrate to Enhance the Bandwidth of Probe-Fed Microstrip Antenna

Progress In Electromagnetics Research, Vol. 61, 215-230, 2006
Abstract
In this paper, the effect of Electromagnetic Bandgap (EBG) Superstrates on return loss of the Probe-Fed Microstrip Antenna (PFMA) has been examined. Originally the EBG superstrate layer made by Frequency Selective Surface (FSS) layers is used to increase the directivity of the PFMA, but to increase the efficiency of the whole structure including the PFMA and EBG superstrate it is necessary to have suitable impedance matching. In this paper the EBG superstrate as a resonance load to the primary radiation source (PFMA) and then by choosing the appropriate geometrical parameters of the structure we can obtain suitable impedance matching beside the directivity enhancement of the primary radiation source.
