2 × 2 Array with UC‐EBG ground for low RCS and high gain

Abstract: In this paper, by exploiting surrounding fractal UC‐EBG ground plane, a 2 × 2 microstrip array capable of X‐band operation is studied. Result of comparison shows that this microstrip array proposed has much lower RCS than that of 2 × 2 array with the standard ground at frequencies outside operating band within 2–18 GHz while its gain is improved in the operating band. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

“…By cutting off the metallic area of the antenna where the current amplitude is small when it radiates, the antenna can achieve a low RCS while maintaining a good radiation performance [10][11][12]. The HIS takes advantage of its zero reflect phase to cancel out the reflection waves from the perfect electric conductor (PEC) of the antenna [13,14]. However, the gain of the antenna will decrease.…”

“…The surface wave restricts the wide use of microstrip antenna, electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) or photonic bandgap (PBG) structure is a method to reduce the surface waves, which exhibit band-gap feature [6] too. EBG has been applied in the field of antenna to improve the performance of antenna [7][8][9][10][11][12], such as suppression of surface wave propagation, increasing the gain of antenna and improving the radiation pattern by inserting the EBG structure into the substrate [13][14][15]. However, in implementing EBG, a large area is needed to implement the periodic patterns and it is also difficult to define the unit element of EBG.…”

“…Frequency selective surface (FSS) is periodic spatial filtering structure, which has been widely used for many applications such as radome, filter, dichroic subreflector, directivity enhancement, and radar cross section (RCS) reduction [1][2][3][4]. Recently, some engineers use FSS in wireless security and mobile communications [5][6][7][8].…”
