Abstract
A high-gain and wideband electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) resonator antenna with a tapered artificial magnetic conductor (AMC) ground plane is presented. The proposed EBG resonator antenna is comprised of a frequency selective surface (FSS) superstrate with a strip dipole array and an AMC ground plane with tapered rectangular patches. The realized gain and the bandwidth of the antenna can be improved simultaneously by using the tapered AMC where the phase difference of the reflected waves from the patches with different length is within 180° and the destructive interference among them can be considerably reduced. The maximum gain is increased about 2∼3 dB and the bandwidth is improved about 2.5 times compared to when the uniform AMC is used.
