The recent and major enhancements of artificial magnetic conductor (AMC) and their applications namely RCS reduction, low-profile antennas and holographic leaky wave antennas are reviewed. Full-wave simulations are compared to measurements of fabricated models, and a good agreement is attained. All of the measurement were conducted in the Arizona State University electromagnetic anechoic chamber (EMAC).
Key words: High impedance surface / metasurfaces / artificial magnetic conductors / RCS reduction / checkerboard surface / ultra wideband / curvilinear patches / loop antenna / spiral antenna / low-profile / superdirective / holography / leaky waves
