Abstract :
In this paper, we investigate effects of several design parameters, including turn number and unit cell size, on the stopband performance of rectangular spiral EBG structure by HFSS. The results of conventional EBG structure and rectangular spiral EBG structure are compared. In addition, the spiral EBG structure is applied into microstrip antenna. It is demonstrated that gain and FBR are improved.
