uc pbg ebg
Hi, everyone. I do have a question about the electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) structure and patch antenna interaction. I saw some paper that the EBG or AMC can improve the patch antenna performance, but forcus on increasing main lobe gain, damping surface current and reduce side lode.
My question is that whether the EBG can be used to reduce the patch antenna sizes or increase the band width? And recommendation and reference will be greatly appreciated.
BTW: are there any tutorial about using HFSS or IE3D to simulate the EBG structure? Thanks in advanced.
