Abstract

A transient electrooptic near-field mapping system based on a gain-switched distributed feedback (DFB) pulsed laser and a CdTe electrooptic crystal was used for characterizing transient near-field patterns of conventional and uniplanar compact photonic bandgap (UC-PBG) patch antennas fabricated on a low-cost FR4 substrate. Effect of the UC-PBG structure on reduction in surface waves in the UC-PBG patch antenna was investigated experimentally by comparing transient near-field patterns of the conventional and UC-PBG patch antennas
