Firstly, the design of a unitcell is introduced and smaller cell size (0.35λ5.8GHz) is proven. Secondly, the unit-cell is extended in a periodic arrangement (7×5 cells), and functionality is proven through simulation and measurements of scattering parameters of a microstrip transmission line grounded with the periodic arrangement. A stop band with attenuation lower than -10 dB is achieved. Field profiles of frequencies inside and outside the stop band assured visually the claimed functionality proven by scattering parameters.","PeriodicalId":6663,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society International Symposium (APSURSI)","volume":"60 2 1","pages":"1780-1781"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77573697","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
