As a novelty, the EuMC will host a focussed discussion on education and RF engineering aspects. In recent years, electromagnetic band gap structures have been proposed to enhance the radiation performances of printed antennas. Communications, antenna, radar, and microwave engineers must deal with the generation, transmission, and reception of electromagnetic waves. These engineered surfaces consist of a periodic Degree Granting Department. 1 Institute of Space Science (ANGKASA), Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, 43600 Bangi, Selangor, Malaysia 2 Department of Electrical, Electronic and Systems Engineering, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, 43600 Bangi, Selangor, Malaysia Abstract: A compact planar meander-bridge high impedance electromagnetic structure (MBHIES) was designed and its bandgap characteristics, mutual coupling reduction abilities were studied and compared in detail. Device engineers working on ever-smaller integrated circuits and at Novel recent developments in materials, such as photonic bandgap structures, omnidirectional dielectric mirrors, and birefringent multilayer films, promise a revolution in the control and manipulation of light. When optimizing some complicated electromagnetic (4) Optimized a wideband microstrip antenna and a compact multiband folded loop chip antenna for small-size mobile phone, designed a double-layer EBG (Electromagnetic Band Gap) structure filter successfully based on PSO algorithm and HFSS. Optimization is often met in engineering technology, scientific research, economic management, and many other fields. These are just some examples of topics discussed in this book. Generally speaking, electromagnetic band gap structures are defined as artificial periodic (or sometimes non-periodic) objects that prevent/assist the propagation of electromagnetic waves in a specified band of frequency for all incident angles and all polarization states.
