Abstract

In this paper, the design of a macro strip patch antenna with a photonic crystal structure has been studied. The purpose of this study is to create a photonic band gap (PBG) structure that can be used to design macro strip antennas. With this method, we can increase the bandwidth several times and increase the antenna’s gain. The noise and radiation loss of the antenna will also be significantly reduced by the use of PGB technology. The bandwidth of the antenna is 0.6 GHz to 1.6 THz. At 1.4 THz, the gain is 7.703 dB. This antenna is widely used in high frequency microwave transmitter and microwave receiver systems.
