Compact Planer Dual Band Circular Shaped Polarization-dependent Electromagnetic Band Gap Structure to Reduce the RCS

Abstract

|In this paper, a compact planar dual-band circular-shaped polarization-dependent electromagnetic band gap (DCS-PDEBG) structure operates at 2.97 GHz and 7.77 GHz in y -direction and 3.14 GHz and 10.90 GHz in the x -direction. A proposed DCS-PDEBG structure consists of a circular patch inside a square patch with a slot at the center, and the established arrangement gives additional capacitance and compact size. The simulation of the DCS-PDEBG is carried out using the Finite Element Method (FEM) of Ansys High-Frequency Simulator (HFSS) and experimentally validated. A truncated microstrip line (TML) method is used to measure the band gap of the proposed planar DCS-PDEBG structure. Experimental results agree well with simulation one. The periodic size of proposed DCS-PDEBG structure is 0.13 (cid:21) 2 : 97GHz (cid:2) 0 : 13 (cid:21) 2 : 97GHz , which is a good candidate where compact size is highly desired.
