ABSTRACT:
An artificial impedance structure and a method for manufacturing same. The structure contains a dielectric layer having generally opposed first and second surfaces, a conductive layer disposed on the first surface, and a plurality of conductive structures disposed on the second surface to provide a preselected impedance profile along the second surface.
