A 2×1 microstrip patch array antenna integrated with photonic bandgap (PBG) and stubs is designed and analyzed. The performance of the PBG and stubs structure are explained and analyzed in terms of the elimination of the resonance at the harmonic frequencies of the antenna. The proposed antenna is d...
