Summary:
Novel artificial magnetic conductor (AMC) as the reflector are designed and measured. We designed a transformed symmetrical mushroom-like surface without a via hole on the cell. Each slot in the structure plays a key role in modeling at the desired frequencies. The structure of the unit cell is focus on the wireless LAN band (2.4 GHz). The antenna on the AMC reflector is working within a quarter-wavelength. For the measured result, a reflection coefficient shows 3 dB differences between the AMC and the PEC reflector. Moreover, a radiation pattern has similar shape with the calculated result.
