This paper describes the calculation for characteristic impedance of transmission line with periodic structures such as defected ground structure (DGS) and photonic bandgap (PBG). The previous method which uses the ${\lambda}$/4 transmission line model is reviewed and its disadvantage that the calculated characteristic impedance is strongly dependent on the frequency is discussed. The characteristic impedance of transmission lines with periodic structures are calculated using the ${\lambda}$/4 transmission line model and analytic method. The calculated characteristic impedance by the latter method is an almost constant value while that from the first method depends on the frequency strongly. In addition, the characteristic impedance of the transmission line with PBG is calculated and proposed, while it has been rarely studied ever. S-parameters are obtained from the measurement using the fabricated sample as well as simulation, and used for calculating the characteristic impedances and comparison. The characteristic impedances calculated from the measured S-parameters agree well with the simulated results. It is well described that the analytic method to calculate the characteristic impedance of transmission lines on uniform dielectric structures can be applied successfully to the transmission lines with periodic structures such as DGS and PBG.

2-dimensional scattering problem of electromagnetic waves by a periodic strip grating on a grounded dielectric slab in case of oblique incidence and arbitrary polarization is analyed by the vector Floquet modal expansion method. Solution convergence versus number of Chebyshev polynomial terms representing the unknown strip current density and number of space harmonics is examined, and some numerical results such as variation of power of significant space harmonics(scattered mode) are compared with those obtained by previous method. In particaluar, the relationship between Bragg blazing phonmena and characteristics mode(current) on the srip is discussed in detail.

Sattering problem of electromagnetic waves by periodic strip grating with two dielectrics over a ground plane in case of oblique incidence and arbitrary polarization is analyzed by the vector floquet mode expansion method and the moment mehtod from the viewpoint of soft and hard boundary value problem. To confirm proposed analysis methods, we examine the solution convergence for the scattering problem. And some numerical results of artificially soft and hard surfaces using the structure filled with single dielectric slab between periodic strip grating and gorund plane is compared with previous results. Some interesting results for soft and hard surfaces using periodic strips loaded with two layered dielectric slabs over a ground plane are given.

In this paper, the solutions of TE(transverse electric) scattering problems by a resistive strip grating over a grounded dielectric layer are analyzed by applying the PMM(point matching method) known as a numerical method of electromagnetic fileld. The boundary conditions are applied to obtain the unknown field coefficients and the resistive boundary condition is used for the relationship between the tangential magnetic field and the induced surface current density on the resistive strip. The induced surface current density of resistive strip is obtained by difference of the up and down of the magnetic field in two boundary areas of the resistive strip. The numerical results for reflected power of zeroth order mode analyzed by according as the resistivity, the width and spacing of resistive strip, the relative permittivity and thickness of dielectric layer, and incident angles. The numerical results shown in good agreement compared to those of the existing papers using FGMM(fourier galerkin moment method).

In this paper, TE(transverse electric) scattering problems by a resistive strip grating over grounded dielectric multilayers according to the strip width and grating period, the relative permittivity and thickness of dielectric multilayers, and incident angles of a TE plane wave are analyzed by applying the FGMM(Fourier-Galerkin Moment Method) known as a numerical procedure. The induced surface current density is simply expanded in a Fourier series by using the exponential function as a simple function. Generally, the relected power gets increased according as the relative permittivity and thickness of dielectric multilayers gets increased, the sharp variations of the reflected power are due to resonance effects that take place and were previously called wood's anomallies$^{[7]}$. To verify the validity of the proposed method, the numerical results of normalized reflected power for the uniform resistivity R = 0 as a conductive strip case show in good agreement with those in the existing paper.

In this paper, a novel power/ground plane using the hybrid-cell electromagnetic band-gap(EBG) structure is proposed for the wide-band suppression of the ground bound noise(GBN) or simultaneous switching noise(SSN). The -30 dB stopband of the proposed structure starts from a few hundred MHz where the GBN/SSN energy is dominant. The distinctive features of this new structure are the thin spiral strip line and hybrid-cells. They realize the enhanced inductance and the shorter period of the EBG lattice. As a result, the lower cut-off frequency and bandwidth of the -30 dB stopband becomes lower and wider, respectively. In addition, the proposed structure has smaller number of resonance modes between power/ground planes and performs a low EMI behavior compared with the reference board.

A coupled-defected ground structure(C-DGS) having closely-located DGS cells is proposed for high performance bandstop filter applications. The negative coupling of ground currents between adjacent DGS cells greatly improves the stopband characteristics. We have measured the attenuation slope of 110.8 dB/GHz and -20 dB rejection band from 3.8 GHz to 15.5 GHz. Compared to the double-plane BSF, the proposed BSF improved the sharp cutoff response 7.6 times. We expect the C-DGS be helpful to improve the performance of DGS application circuits and also to extend the possible DGS applications.

A new metamaterial antenna with dual resonant modes is presented using an asymmetrical periodic arrangement for orthogonal radiation patterns. The proposed antenna produces two orthogonal modes by the asymmetrical periodic unit-cell arrangement. The orthogonal resonant mode provides perpendicular radiation patterns without changing the antenna polarization at each resonant mode. The fabricated antenna shows good agreements with the theoretical analysis of the electric-field. The experimental results shows the orthogonal radiation patterns along x- and y-axises, and gains are 3.34 and 3.86 dBi at each radiating resonant mode, respectively. Additionally, slotted ground structures are embedded on the back side of the antenna in order to reduce the size and enhance the radiation efficiency of 12 % and 27 %, respectively.
