Design of low-frequency Artificial Magnetic Conductor with interleaved gap and lumped elements

AMC (Artificial Magnetic Conductors) is an important part in the research about artificial electromagnetic materials. Currently, the main two trends in AMC is miniaturization and low-frequency design, especially the latter, which can help applying AMC into wireless communication antennas. This paper discusses some kinds of low-frequency AMC structure, with interleaved gap and lumped elements as key factors, and the lowest working frequency of AMC achieved is 165MHz, which can offer ideas for relating work in future.
