An Equivalent Circuit and Modeling Method for Defected Ground Structure and Its Application to the Design of Microwave Circuits

In this article, the equivalent circuit and modeling method for a defected ground structure (DGS) is proposed, to be used in the design of a microwave circuit. Using the proposed equivalent circuit permits the optimization of the DGS circuits. Simulati...
Recently, there has been an increasing interest in studying microstrip lines with various periodic structures that prohibit wave propagation in certain frequency bands, including photonic bandgap (PBG) and DGS. 1-10 Each periodic structure has its own properties and advantages. DGS, which is realized by etching only a few areas...
