In this paper, the application of the L‐slotted mushroom electromagnetic bandgap (LMEBG) structure to patch antenna and antenna array is investigated. A coaxial fed patch antenna and antenna array are designed at 5.8 GHz, center frequency for ISM band (5.725‐5.875 GHz). Two layers of LMEBG are placed around the patch to achieve a gain enhancement of 1.9 dB. Measured results show a bandwidth enhancement of 300 MHz with an additional resonant frequency at 5.6 GHz with 4.5 dB of gain. A 5 × 2 array of LMEBG is used to achieve a 2 dB mutual coupling reduction and 2 dB gain enhancement for a two‐element H‐coupled patch antenna array.
