AbstractA new antenna structure using triangular patch alongside a small trapezoidal shape ground plane with proximity fed is proposed in this article. The proposed antenna design provides a bandwidth in the range from 2 < 35 GHz with band discontinuities. Improvement is done in antenna performance by using electromagnetic band‐gap (EBG) structure. First, dumb‐bell shapes as 2D‐EBG are etched in the feeding line. Second, embedded spiral artificial magnetic conductor with four arms to introduce sufficient inductive impedance is done. The resultant bandwidth increases to three times than the original bandwidth and reduces the antenna size as well as enhancing the antenna gain. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
