Abstract

The design, simulation and analysis of artificial magnetic conductors (AMCs) are presented. In contrast to the current realization of AMCs, such as mushroom and photonic bandgap surfaces, the presented AMCs have a bandwidth percentage more than 25% and work in dual-frequency, which are greatly beneficial to the modern communications and low-profile antennas. The full-wave simulation results verify that the magnetic conductor is successfully accomplished at central frequencies 7 GHz and 16.5GHz with the bandwidth of 2.4GHz and 4.3GHz, respectively.
