Abstract :
A novel TEM-waveguide using a photonic band-gap (PBG) structure is presented. The uniplanar compact PBG (UC-PBG) structure which realizes a magnetic surface in the stopband is used in the waveguide walls. TEM mode has been observed by measuring the field distribution and phase velocity of the waveguide
