Patent abstract
An antenna system includes an antenna element and an electromagnetic bandgap element proximate the antenna element wherein the electromagnetic bandgap element is optimized for narrow bandwidth operation thereby providing radiofrequency selectivity to the antenna system. Preferably the electromagnetic bandgap element is tunable such as through use of a bias-alterable dielectric substrate or other tuning mechanism. The design approach also provides a means of creating an ultra-thin low-profile narrowband tunable channel selective antenna system suitable for low frequency applications.
