A Circuit-Model-Navigated Design Process and Efficiency Estimation for Short-Circuited Self-Excited EBG Resonator Antenna

Table 2

The effect of truncation on the SC SE-EBG-RA (2-via); Δ is the change in f_r, divided by f_r of the nontruncated case; the connector and cable are exactly modeled in both cases; G_r stands for the realized gain.
