In this paper, the bandwidth and dimensions of different dual-band Artificial Magnetic Conductors (AMCs) for 2.5/5.5 GHz WiFi applications are compared. The simulation results indicate that the double hexagon structure presents a superior performance compared to the others. The measured results of two different structures are in very good agreement with the simulated ones, and hence, the study is validated. © 2016 European Association of Antennas and Propagation.
