Abstract :
The propagating mode on a periodic array of wires or strips is studied. Numerical solutions of the current distribution on each element, the propagation constant, and the cutoff frequencies of the propagating mode are found. It is discovered that this periodic structure in some cases can support propagating waves in two or more widely separated frequency bands.
