Abstract
This letter presents the design of a dual-band electromagnetic crystal antenna. The design is based on controlling the metallic wire crystal resonances by using different row periods. To analyze and predict the antenna radiation pattern behavior at the two frequency bands, the transmission coefficient parameter is used. To validate the proposed approach, numerical and experimental results are presented, and a good agreement is achieved
