Abstract :
A novel compact electromagnetic bandgap structure is presented. The coplanar meander line inductance is adopted to increase the surface equivalent inductance in order to improve the bandwidth of the bandgap and reduce unit cell size. The measured results show that 54.1% relative bandwidth and 25.2% reduction in resonant frequency could be obtained.
