title = "Low-Profile Metasurface Dipole Antenna on Electromagnetic Band Gap Ground Plane",
abstract = "The performance of metasurface dipole antenna on electromagnetic band gap and perfect electric conductor ground planes is studied for 4 G and 5 G cellular 65° sector base station applications. The metasurface dipole on an electromagnetic bandgap ground plane provides a 3-dB beamwidth stability and front-to-back ratio improvement across the band of interest for both azimuth and elevation planes compared to perfect electric conductor ground plane. Besides that, a 14 dB impedance bandwidth of 52\% in frequency range of 1.7-2.9 GHz is achieved. The isolation is better than 40 dB and the stable radiation patterns have an average boresight gain of 8.3 dBi. The overall antenna size is 0.42 λ × 0.42 λ × 0.14 λ over a 0.62 λ × 0.62 λ ground plane.",
