Abstract
Nowadays, the interesting properties such as inexpensive, low profile, and easily compatible with the microwave integrated circuits (MMIC) have made the microstrip antenna reasonably strong candidate for wireless communications regardless of main challenge of lower bandwidth. The recent studies show that using the electromagnetic band gap (EBG) structures along with the microstrip antennas can help to improve the performance. While using the EBG structures, it is vital to analyze the impacts of different factors such as gap width on the antenna parameters. In this paper, we have proposed the novel unit cell analysis method for the periodic EBG structure analysis. A novel unit cell analysis approach for periodic EBG structure analysis is presented which is a major step towards the study of the gap width effect on parameters of antenna like frequency band gap, reflection coefficient. This paper presents the complete EGB structure design and its analysis for the results validation. The outcome of this paper is that the modified unit cell analysis method effectively satisfies the EBG structure analysis as the validation results agree with each other strongly.
