Abstract
This paper presents the design of antenna for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. The performance of conventional antenna is limited by surface waves due to which it produces a low gain. An attempt is made to reduce the surface wave excitations in conventional antennas with the use of integration of Electromagnetic Band Gap (EBG) cells. The proposed work involves the design of Edge via EBG unit cell at 5.2 GHz and it is simulated with High Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS) software. The simulation results show that the gain is enhanced by 10% and S11 is reduced by 72%, approximately in the rectangular microstrip patch antenna with Edge via EBGs.
