Abstract :
A novel PBG structure well-suited for slot-line printed devices and its application to control harmonic frequencies of an Annular Slot Antenna (ASA) are proposed. This novel PBG structure is the dual of the well-known Radisic PBG structure for microstrip printed devices. It consists of etching metallic discs on the opposite side of the slot-line.
