Abstract

A compact wideband miniaturized electromagnetic band gap (EBG) antenna has been proposed for communication systems with E-shaped defected ground structure (DGS). The proposed EBG antenna operates in the frequency range from 7.3 GHz to 9.4 GHz which includes the X band uplink frequency band (for sending modulated signals) from 7.9 to 8.4 GHz and the ITU-assigned downlink frequency band (for receiving signals) from 7.25 to 7.75 GHz. With EBG layer on the top layer, an E-shaped DGS structure has been introduced in the ground plane which results in the enhancement of measured impedance bandwidth from 300 MHz to 2100 MHz with good radiation characteristics.
