In this paper, we use the intrinsic properties of a two-dimensional rectangular and three-dimensional parallelepipedic lattice photonic bandgap (PBG) material to design a cover antenna. We demonstrate the interest in such a device for increasing the directivity of a patch antenna. ©1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 22: 136–139, 1999.
