Abstract :
Planar EBGs can be described as planar periodic metallic arrays with a resonant behaviour and therefore in order to fully analyze them it is not advisable to consider the layers infinitely thin, especially at higher frequencies. This paper focuses on a new method to analyze planar EBG made up of thick screens. We integrate our previous work with a waveguide approach, which describes the behaviour inside the openings in the thick metallic slab.
