Abstract
Compact photonic bandgap structures in microstrip technology with reasonable physical sizes have recently been proposed as efficient frequency-band reflectors. Here, it is shown how the application of a Kaiser tapering window to the periodic pattern etched in the ground plane of the structure provides appreciable performance improvement, reducing both passband ripple and stopband attenuation and increasing bandwidth
