The practical application of an electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) structure usually presents difficulties in accommodating its physical size, since the period of an EBG lattice has to be a half-wavelength at the stop-band center frequency. Simple increments of the EBG cells and the wave impedance difference will result in inherent...

Browse through the articles and advertisements in any issue of Microwave Journal (MWJ) and you get a pretty good glimpse of the ecosystem that forms our industry. The component manufacturers (active and passive), the integrated circuit developers, the foundries that produce these MMICs and RFICs, the test and measurement...
