This is the first report on novel mushroom-type electromagnetic band gap (EBG) structures, consisting of fractal periodic elements, used for enhancing the gain of microstrip patch antennas. Using CST Microwave studio the performance of rectangular patch antenna has been examined on proposed fractal EBG substrates. It is found that fractal EBGs are more effective in suppressing surface wave thus resulting in higher gain. The gain of rectangular patch has been improved from 6.88 to 10.67 dBi. The proposed fractal EBG will open new avenues for the design and development of variety of high-frequency components and devices with enhanced performance.

Backlobe radiations are the key stumbling block to using microstrip patch antennas in wireless communication, but they can be minimised by using a slot-coupled feeding technique. This paper proposes a microstrip patch antenna with a multilayer structure. The Ansoft High Frequency Structure Simulation is used to describe and model this slot-fed antenna, which has an improved gain of 5.6dB and directivity of 5.9dB and resonates at a frequency of 2.25GHz.
