Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) We have proposed a multiband sector antenna with multiple reflectors mploying the metamaterial for a base station antenna of mobilecommunication systems employing sector cell. The reflector employing woodpile metamaterial that consists of layers of dielectric rods with a stacking sequence has a lectromagnetic band gap (EBG) characteristics, and can reflect the electromagnetic waves of the desired band (EBG band) and transmit those of the specific bands. The metamaterial reflector affects to electromagnetic waves of the undesired band which metamaterial reflector transmits the electromagnetic waves. The beamwidth adjustment is difficult by the effect of the metamaterial reflector. This report clarifies the effect to other frequency band. The proposed antenna has designed 90 beamwidth in the horizontal plane of each frequency band (800 MHz and 2 GHz), and the measurements well match the electromagnetic field simulations.
