EBG Design using FSS Elements in Rectangular Waveguide

Abstract

A novel waveguide based EBG structure is originated by periodically loading FSS strip elements in rectangular waveguide. Efficient and accurate Hybrid MoM-Immiittance Approach is used for the full-wave characterization, which is validated by experimental results. A parametric study of effect of various factors on the EBG width has been done. Various existing and novel FSS strips have been investigated to improve the roll-off characteristics in the passband. Double square loop FSS strip loaded waveguide gives improvement in the roll-off factors. Such novel waveguide based EBG structures may be used in the design of harmonic suppressed waveguide filters, band reject filters and suppression of harmonics for waveguide resonators or antennas.
