Papers by Keyword: High Impedance Surface

Abstract: We introduce a metamaterial based parallel-plate waveguide, devised in microstrip technology that features two electromagnetic band-gaps. Since one of the band-gaps extends from zero frequency, the structure can be used as a band-pass filter. We perform a parametric study in view of facilitating design and optimisation.

Abstract: This work numerically explores the relations between the positions and the widths of the frequency bandgaps that occur in some shielded high impedance surfaces and the geometrical dimensions of the structures. The reported parameterized results are useful for design issues and for circuit models conception and validation.
