“…However, several references used the planar approach to give a design guide for FSS-based antennas 13) , 15) . On the other hand, 12) showed that the interactions between antennas and FSSs could not be sufficiently addressed without a full-wave analysis of the actual antenna structure in the presence of the FSS. Therefore, in this paper, instead of using FSSs to enhance the bandwidth of narrowband radiators as in 12) or using FSS based reflectors to improve the gain of predesigned UWB radiators as in 12)-13) , we follow an approach gathers the best of all, where an UWB radiator along with a new single layer FSS are designed together to obtain an UWB, low profile, and high quasi-constant gain antenna.…”

In this paper, we present the design of a new ultra-wideband (UWB) frequency selective surface (FSS) based antenna, by using a wide stop-band FSS as a backing reflector for an UWB monopole antenna. A new single layer FSS, with UWB stop-band response and a reflection phase varies linearly with frequency, is firstly designed and thereafter, it is integrated with an UWB electric monopole. The studies of the behavior of the proposed antenna reveal that a unidirectional radiation with a quasi-constant gain of an average of 9dBi and a compact profile of λ/10 are achieved. The features of the proposed UWB FSS and its based antenna make them good candidates for integration with low profile broadband printed circuits and UWB applications.

“…Theoretical analysis and practical implementation of EBG are well-described in [14]. A small size of EBG elements allows obtaining a compact construction of various frequency selective devises and abundance of element modifications allows widening their working bands [15][16][17]. Also as it is shown in [18] that EBG constructions have metamaterial properties [19], what gives additional opportunities for design of frequency-selective surfaces.…”

An electromagnetic band gap (EBG) metamaterial construction is presented. A construction of a multipath mitigating ground plane, based on the EBG metamaterial is described. A method of the ground plane application and installation, which provides the multipath mitigating without spoiling antenna element phase center stability, is suggested and explained. A designed construction of GNSS antenna module, which contains the multipath mitigating ground plane, made from the presented EBG metamaterial and installed in the described way is shown and parameters of the antenna module are provided.

“…As a special electromagnetic material, artificial magnetic conductor (AMC) structure provides a way to lower the profile of dipole antennas. Several different AMCs are investigated in terms of their reflection phase characteristics versus frequency in [13]. However, the in-phase reflection bandwidth of AMC structure is narrow; thus, a wide band with dipole antenna is difficult to obtain.…”

Abstract-Artificial magnetic conductor (AMC) is a periodic structure with in-phase reflection, which can be used in dual-polarization dipole antenna to reduce profile height. In this study, a low-profile dual-polarized dipole antenna with an AMC reflector is proposed by improving the AMC structure. The antenna consists of a pair of orthogonal planar dipoles with U-shaped slots, two T-shaped feeding lines, and an AMC reflector. The overall height is 0.132λ 2.2 GHz . Experimental results show that the proposed antenna has a wider bandwidth than other antennas of the same type. The impedance bandwidth of this antenna is 52% (1.65 GHz to 2.81 GHz), and the proposed antenna also has the advantages of low profile, high port isolation (< −30 dB), and low cross polarization (< −27 dB). These features can meet the current needs of the telecommunications industry.
