  • Abstract
    In this paper, insertion loss in transmission lines embedded in a power distribution network (PDN) containing an Electromagnetic Bandgap (EBG) structure is investigated. Both fullwave simulations and measurement results show the loading EBG structure on the transmission coefficients of few investigated routing scenarios. In order to improve signal integrity, a solid conductor segment is inserted underneath the line on the EBG surface. The dimensions of the conductor segment are optimized for best transmission coefficient while maintaining noise suppression characteristics of the PDN.
