改善带宽和增益的阶梯状EBG结构微带天线设计

Design of Micro-strip Antenna Based on Step-like Electromagnetic Band-gap Structure to Improve Bandwidth and Gain

设计了一种基于电磁带隙结构(Electromagnetic band-gap,EBG)的微带天线,可显著改善天线带宽和增益。EBG结构用于抑制表面波传播,增加微带天线辐射增益;天线基板厚度的增加有益于拓展工作带宽。根据实际需要,EBG结构和天线可以不共用衬底基板。该方法可代替传统扼流环天线,在不牺牲天线性能的前提下,能显著缩减天线体积,在通信领域有潜在的利用价值。

Design of a micro-strip antenna based on electromagnetic band-gap structure can significantly improve the bandwidth and gain of the antenna. EBG structure is used to suppress the surface wave propagation and increase the radiation gain of the antenna. At the same time, the antenna substrate thickness increase is beneficial to expand the bandwidth of the antenna. According to the actual need, the EBG and the antenna can use diffident substrate. The method can replace the traditional choke ring antenna and significantly reduce the antenna size without sacrificing the performance of the antenna.
