Abstract

This article presents a new methodology allowing to design a planar electromagnetic band-pap antenna (choice of theebg material, sizing, feeding). This kind of antenna has already been presented.ebg antennas are very thin (compared with parabolic reflectors) high gain antennas. This article makes easier the realization ofebg antennas whatever the operating frequency, the gain, or still the bandwidth. A study about the sensitivity of the material properties on the performances is also presented. Finaly two exemples using this design method are described.

Résumé

Cet article décrit une méthodologie complète inédite permettant de dimensionner et de réaliser une antenne planaire à bande interdite électromagnétique (Choix du matériau, de la configuration, dimensionnement, alimentation...). Le fonctionnement de ce type d’antenne a déjà été publié. Les antennesbie sont des antennes directives à encombrement réduit en épaisseur (En comparaison avec par exemple une antenne parabolique). Cet article facilite la réalisation des antennesbie quelques soient la fréquence, le gain ou encore la bande de fonctionnement. Une partie concerne également la sensibilité des éléments du matériau sur les performances de l’antenne. Enfin, deux exemples concrets utilisant cette méthode de conception sont présentés.
