Abstract :
The implementation of electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) structures in all areas of high-frequency design is gaining widespread use. The applications for antennas include low-prof le antennas, on-chip antennas, phased arrays, waveguides, and microwave filters. This book is an excellent resource for this subject. The book appeals to a wide array of readers, including students, researchers, and practitioners. The book is a reference that presents the state of the art in antenna-specif c EBG technologies. The book could also serve as a textbook for a class on the subject, as there are suggested projects at the end of each chapter that can be implemented to check for understanding. I especially like how each chapter builds upon the understanding of the previous chapters.
