Abstract EN

A novel design of a sectoral antenna that utilizes a double layer Metallic Electromagnetic Band Gap (M-EBG) as a superstrate for dual band directivity enhancement is presented in this paper.

We obtain the different operating frequencies by adjusting the distance of the lower M-EBG layer from printed patch antenna and also the height between upper and lower M-EBG layers.

This antenna operates according to a sectoral radiation pattern form presenting a half power beamwidth of at least 60∘.

The proposed structure presents more than 17 dB directivity enhancement at 5.25 GHz and 5.65 GHz as compared to those of a patch antenna with 9 dB directivity.

The principle is explained and applied to a Hiperlan2 antenna.
