Improving Microstrip Patch Antenna Bandwidth Using Frequency Selective Surfaces
An invasive weed optimization (IWO) algorithm design methodology is presented for improving the bandwidth of a microstrip patch antenna using jerusalem cross-shaped frequency selective surfaces (JC-FSSs). It is shown that choosing an appropriate particular shape like jerusalem cross, for the FSS element rather than a pixelized grid geometry, allows for a superior antenna design in term of computational efficiency.Results are presented for this broadband EBG-antenna system that achieves relative bandwidth of BW=10.44% around the center frequency of 5.8GHz.
