Abstract :
A new photonic bandgap (PBG) structure for microstrip lines is proposed. Different from conventional PBG microstrip lines, the periodic patterns are etched in the conductor line of the microstrip in this structure. Simulations and measurements show that the bandgap can be achieved using this method. Compared with traditional PBG microstrip structures, this new transmission line can be installed in a metal shield box without performance loss.
