Abstract :
In this paper a planar and low profile chessboard structure to reduce Radar Cross Section in W band has been implemented in EBG technology based in the destructive interference generated by different Artificial Magnetic Conductor square patches. The structure has been fabricated using Antenna Group facilities and is actually being measured in Antenna Group THz laboratory.
