Abstract
A novel spiral antenna backed on photonic bandgap (PBG) material is presented. It consists of a spiral radiator, a PBG substrate and a feed network; and exhibits a wider frequency bandwidth, larger ratio of front-to-back radiation level, and higher gain than a traditional spiral antenna with λ/4 spaced ground plate
