| Summary: | Electromagnetic band-gap (EBG) surfaces have found applications in mitigation of parallel-plate
noise that occurs in high speed circuits. A 2D periodic structure previously introduced by the
same authors is dimensioned here for adjusting EBG parameters in view of meeting applications
requirements by decreasing the phase velocity of the propagating waves. This adjustment corresponds
to decreasing the lower bound of the EBG spectra. The positions of the EBGs' in frequency are
determined through full-wave simulation, by solving the corresponding eigenmode equation and
by imposing the appropriate boundary conditions on all faces of the unit cell. The operation
of a device relying on a finite surface is also demonstrated. Obtained results show that the
proposed structure fits for the signal integrity related applications as verified also by
comparing the transmission along a finite structure of an ideal signal line and one with
an induced discontinuity. |
