This paper deals with the use of Electromagnetic Band gap-based high-efficiency planar ceramic antennas. The improvement of the overall performances with respect to the use of a standard high dielectric substrate is shown. Good impedance matching and radiation performances are obtained in addition to a reasonably high efficiency with values over 50% at the operational frequency. The antenna has been breadboarded and measured and good agreement has been obtained between simulations and measurements.
