Design of low-cost uniplanar AMC structures for UHF applications

摘要

In this work a low-cost uniplanar electromagnetic bandgap structure is presented, for antennas and microwave circuits working in the UHF frequency band. The proposed configuration is fully planar, easy to fabricate, designed on a PET substrate using a conductive ink, and based solely on metallic surfaces on layer interfaces, without the use of vias or other kinds of vertical connections.
