Abstract :
An electromagnetic band gap structures (EBGS) has been used in the Microstrip meander-line slow wave structures (MML-SWSs) in order to improve their performance. The EBGSs can be used as the substrates to support the MML-SWSs, which replace the ceramic substrates in traditional ones. The simulation results show that the minimum loss of the MML-SWSs used EBGS is half of the traditional one.
