Abstract: Design of a micro-strip antenna based on electromagnetic band-gap structure can significantly improve the bandwidth and gain of the antenna. EBG structure is used to suppress the surface wave propagation and increase the radiation gain of the antenna. At the same time, the antenna substrate thickness increase is beneficial to expand the bandwidth of the antenna. According to the actual need, the EBG and the antenna can use diffident substrate. The method can replace the traditional choke ring antenna and significantly reduce the antenna size without sacrificing the performance of the antenna.
