摘要：In this paper, we improve the bandwidth of a dual array patch antenna designed at 14.25 GHz by etching two different patterns that resemble conventional EBG structures on the feedline. The main purpose of the antenna is to have a percentage improvement in bandwidth of an EBG type antenna when compared to a reference antenna. We have termed these patterns as Dummy EBG patterns because these patterns are different from conventional EBG structures but resemble in certain properties and functions to them. These dummy EBG patterns are small and compact in size. It has been shown that a considerable improvement in bandwidth can be achieved.
