Abstract

Electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) structures that provide an excellent isolation within the stopband are extremely effective in suppressing propagation of simultaneous switching noise on parallel power planes. However, a scattering parameter measurement and full-wave electromagnetic simulation for their entire structure are costly and time consuming. This letter presents a two-dimensional dispersion-diagram analysis based on a unit-cell network of EBG structures by extending a well-known dispersion-diagram analysis of one-dimensional infinite periodic structures. The approach is extremely effective in computing stopband frequencies and provides the stopbands with good agreement to the measured results.
