Abstract

This paper presents a reduced size planar EBG cell, insensitive to variations in the polarization and/or the angles of incidence of the incident wave. The usefulness of this cell is justified by incorporating it into different antenna systems. Namely, integrating it with an array of 2 patches to minimize the cross coupling between them down till around-40 dB. Also, two multi-band systems implemented with the EBG cells are presented. A main advantage is the simplicity of design and ease of fabrication
