Abstract

Low profile structures such as High Impedance Surfaces (HIS) are capable of modifying the scattering properties of a radiating structure. This paper presents the novel design of patch antenna/array with non-uniform HIS based ground plane. Two FSS elements of different dimensions are designed with different resonant frequencies. The performance of the high impedance surfaces has been carried out by varying the HIS dimensions and height of the substrate. Using the analyses, patch antenna/array with ground plane based on non-uniform configurations of HIS elements are designed. The radiation and scattering characteristics of microstrip patch antenna/array with HIS- based ground plane are compared to those with conventional PEC-based ground plane. A maximum of 8 dB RCS reduction has been achieved for patch array with non-uniform HIS layer.
