Abstract
This paper presents a novel dual-band microstrip patch antenna that employs a metamaterial-based electromagnetic bandgap (MTM-EBG) integrated into its radiating edges to support two distinct operating frequencies. The resulting antenna is compact, uniplanar, completely printable, and via-free. Dispersion engineering of the MTM-EBG unit cell through a rigorous multiconductor transmission-line analysis allows simple, systematic design for two or more arbitrary frequencies. Additionally, a novel approach is taken to employ the same MTM-EBG to impedance-match the antenna to an inset microstrip feed at both operating frequencies. A dual-band MTM-EBG antenna designed to radiate at 2.4 and 5.0 GHz is simulated and tested, and experimental results demonstrate radiation performance comparable to the corresponding conventional patch antennas in excellent agreement with simulations, while also affording some degree of miniaturization at lower frequencies.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
