Abstract
We present a novel electromagnetic bandgap structure with reduced spurious radiation properties. The application presented here is the wide-band suppression of parasitic parallel-plate modes on multilayer printed circuit boards. We use a well known unit-cell design as a benchmark for the new structure. Two optimized configurations highlight unit cell design aspects.
