EBG structures on high permittivity substrate to reduce noise in power distribution networks

The noise reduction effect in a Power Distribution Network (PDN) by implementing Electromagnetic Band Gap structures (EBG) on standard and high permittivity substrates has been investigated. Boards with different EBG structures have been modelled and designed. Using the EBG structures the Power Distribution Network (PDN) becomes a low-pass filter reducing unwanted resonances and radiated electromagnetic fields.
