Abstract

In recent years, there has been significant research interest in microwave applications of defected ground structures. In this paper, three kinds of Periodic Defected Ground Structures are analyzed to assess their effects on surface and leaky waves. To achieve this purpose, the finite element method accompanied by Periodic boundary conditions is used to show the propagation characteristics of these periodic structures. Also, the existence of surface wave reduction property is investigated and finally the simulation Results are compared to the experimental results with reasonable agreement.
