This paper presents a way in which a broadband EBG structure can be formed by stacking uniform EBG (electromagnetic band gap) structures. The design is validated by using it with a broadband monopole antenna. The paper shows the applications of stacked EBG structure. The performance of the antenna with the stacked EBG is compared with that of a uniform EBG.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
