Abstract
In this paper, a novel frequency configurable electromagnetic band-gap (EBG) structure is designed to achieve microstrip antenna’s RCS reduction in a wide frequency range. The compact frequency configurable EBG element is comprised of spiral inductors and two diodes. By turning the diodes on or off, the frequency configurable EBG element can operate at different frequency. And then it can work in a wide frequency band. Based on the cancellation of the reflection from the EBG structure and the perfect conductor of the antennas, RCS reduction can be realized over the frequency range of 6 GHz–12 GHz.
