This paper conducts a study on the frequency-dependent filtering and blocking effects of a variety of periodic structures, dubbed frequency selective surface(FSS). The periodic structures of interest are 1D and 2D repeated patterns of metal patches or slots sitting on the interface between the two different regions in the layered media which will show the capacitive or inductive behaviors and incorporated with the electromagnetic bandgap(EBG) geometry as another stratified media. Besides the normal substances so called double positive(DPS)-type in the layered media, metamaterials of double negative(DNG) are considered as layering components on the purpose of investigating the unusual electromagnetic phenomena. Frequency responses of transmission(absorption in terms of scattering) and reflection will be calculated by a numerical analysis which can be validated by the comparison with the open literature and demonstrated for the periodic structures embedding metamaterials or not. Most importantly, numerous examples of FSS will present the useful guidelines to have absorption or reflection properties in the frequency domain.

This paper presents a new microwave oscillator incorporating a corrugated coplanar waveguide (CCPW) electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) structure as its terminating resonance component. The use of a compact CCPW EBG structure was effective in reducing the phase noise and improving the harmonic characteristics of the microwave oscillator circuit without additional backside processing and drastic size increment. The fully planar CCPW oscillator oscillating at the frequency of 5.41 GHz showed a phase noise characteristic of -90.7 dBc/Hz at 100kHz offset and a second harmonic suppression of 42.67 dB.

This paper presents design and specific absorption rate analysis of a 2.4 GHz wearable patch antenna on a conventional and electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) ground planes, under normal and bent conditions. Wearable materials are used in the design of the antenna and EBG surfaces. A woven fabric (Zelt) is used as a conductive material and a 3 mm thicker Wash Cotton is used as a substrate. The dielectric constant and tangent loss of the substrate are 1.51 and 0.02 respectively. The volume of the proposed antenna is $113{\times}96.4{\times}3mm^3$. The metamaterial surface is used as a high impedance surface which shields the body from the hazards of electromagnetic radiations to reduce the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). For on-body analysis a three layer model (containing skin, fats and muscles) of human arm is used. Antenna employing the EBG ground plane gives safe value of SAR (i.e. 1.77W/kg<2W/kg), when worn on human arm. This value is obtained using the safe limit of 2 W/kg, averaged over 10g of tissue, specified by the International Commission of Non Ionization Radiation Protection (ICNIRP). The SAR is reduced by 83.82 % as compare to the conventional antenna (8.16 W/kg>2W/kg). The efficiency of the EBG based antenna is improved from 52 to 74 %, relative to the conventional counterpart. The proposed antenna can be used in wearable electronics and smart clothing.

In this paper, an analytical approach for the design and analysis of an aperiodic electromagnetic bandgap (EBG)-based power distribution network (PDN) in high-speed integrated-circuit (IC) packages and printed circuit boards (PCBs) is proposed. Aperiodic EBG is an effective method to solve the noise problem of high-speed IC packages and PCBs. However, its analysis becomes challenging due to increased computation time. To overcome the problem, the proposed analytical method entails deriving impedance parameters for EBG island and the overall PDN, which includes locally placed EBG structures. To validate the proposed method, a test vehicle is fabricated, demonstrating good agreement with the measurements. Significantly, the proposed analytical method reduces computation time by 99.7 %compared to the full-wave simulation method.

The spurious electromagnetic radiation is generated due to the RF unbalanced current on a conductive cable connecting an electronic device to another. A metamaterial-based filtering geometry with frequency selectivity is suggested to reduce the radiation with a bandgap structure, where the right-handed inductance and capacitance stem from the transmission-like configuration between the cable and the metal protrusion, and the left-handed components come from the narrow cavities. The effect of the structure on the unbalanced current pulse and its spurious radiation is presented in the FDTD-method frame work.

In this raper, proposed easy half-wavelength LPF and acceptor structure in actuality manufacture using EBG (Electromagnatic Bandgap) structure for application of micro-strip circuit. Because conventional half-wavelength LPF and acceptor is narrow line-width of High impedance, actuality manufacture is difficult. Width that in proposed structure narrow microstrip line of High impedance EBG structure use and has equal impedance embodied to wide microstrip line. Also, it is seen that actuality manufacture is available applying to half-wavelength LPF that have cut-off Frequency of 3GHz.

In this paper, we studied the design of power divider using the slow-wave effect of Photonic Bandgap structure, which is etched on the ground plane. The proposed PBG structure can provides the changing of the characteristic impedance of the transmission line and the group delay velocity characteristic. Therefore we can make wider width than the width of conventional transmission line and decrease the length of transmission line. We presented the application for power divider using the characteristic impedance and electrical length extracted from scattering parameter. As adding proposed defect units, the effect of defect is studied. The experimental results show good agreements with the simulated results.

In this paper, microstrip ring with a narrow gap is characterized and used as a tunable microwave bandgap (MBG) structure. The center frequency of MBG is mainly determined by the mean circumference of the ring and coincides with odd mode resonance frequency of the ring resonator. The stop band formation by the proposed microstip MBG ring is due to the reflection of electromagnetic waves at the narrow gap introduced in the ring, and the reactive component mounted on the gap makes the stop band vary according to its value. The mounting of capacitor (inductor) is observed to decrease (increase) the center frequency of the stop band. The varactor-mounted microstrip MBG ring is expected to be useful in microwave switches and microwave amplifier circuits.

In this paper we propose the compact three-layer EBG structure. The unit cell of the proposed EBG structure is composed of a square patch in the upper layer and a square ring stripline in the lower layer that are connected to the ground plane through conducting vias. Reflection phase analysis method and tangential transmission method were considered to accomplish effective EM simulation and measurement. EM simulation results indicate that bandgap characteristics of the EBG structure using both methods is nearly identical. Parametric studies have been performed with the EM simulator to analyze the properties of the EBG structure by investigating the phase shift of the normally incident plane wave, and the transmission measurements between simple monopole antennas positioned near the EBGstructure have been done. The operating fiefuency bandgap of the proposed EBG structure is about 34 $\%$ lower than the conventional EBG structure with the same size. Measured results show bandgap from 0.930 GHz to 0.945 GHz.

In this paper, we propose a new EBG structure that the two unit cells are connected by the bridge line in signal transmission plane. The SSN of the power plane is reduced effectively by via holes and bridge lines connecting the unit cells. The superior signal transfer characteristic is shown between the signal lines in the signal transmission plane. The proposed EBG structure contains 1.2 GHz cut-off frequency and less than －30 dB suppression in the 8.3 GHz broad bandwidth. In addition, To improve the SI(Signal Integrity) in signal transmission plane keeping the same bandstop frequency range, the optimized location of the reference plane is proposed.
