Abstract
This chapter shows and evaluates the design of a compact dual-band microstrip patch antenna working at 2.5 and 5.2 GHz for a number of important parameters. The antenna is designed to operate at these frequencies. By using not one but two distinct EBG ground planes, the proposed dual-band conventional ground plane antenna achieves a higher level of overall performance in comparison to its predecessor (in terms of directivity, gain, efficiency, and other features). It has been discovered that antennas modeled after EBGs perform much better than antennas constructed using conventional ground planes. In addition, the authors examined the performance of the recommended dual-band conventional ground-plane antenna under a variety of bending conditions.
