Abstract :
A simple method is proposed for obtaining a partially reflective surface for use in dual-band, low-profile electromagnetic band-gap resonator antennas. This partially reflective surface is combined with an electric conductor ground to form a dual-band resonant cavity, allowing the design of a dual-band resonator antenna. The method to design the partially reflective surface is described and examples are given.
