Abstract
A novel spiral antenna backed on photonic bandgap (PBG) material is present ed. It consists of a spiral radiator, a PBG substrate and a feed network; a nd exhibits a wider frequency bandwidth, larger ratio of front-to-back radi ation level, and higher gain than a traditional spiral antenna with lambda/ 4 spaced ground plate.
