Abstract :
A mushroom-like electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) surface for interference mitigation in GPS L2 and L1 band is presented. This printed metallo-dielectric structure is designed to act like commercially available choke rings (cylindrically corrugated surface). Measurements exhibit comparable performance, while weight and thickness are significantly reduced.
