Disclosed herein is an antenna for WAVE communication, and more particularly, is an antenna for WAVE communication to which an electromagnetic bandgap is applied to a patch antenna. The antenna includes a dielectric substrate provided with conduction patterns formed on opposite surfaces thereof, first patches disposed on a first surface of the dielectric substrate at positions spaced apart from each other at regular intervals and conducted to each other, second patches disposed on a second surface of the dielectric substrate at positions spaced apart from each other at regular intervals and conducted to each other; a third patch provided in a bottom of the second surface of the dielectric substrate and conducted to the plurality of second patches, and a plurality of electromagnetic bandgap structures positioned on the first surface of the dielectric substrate and conducted to the second patches or the third patch by a through hole.
