The potential to control the number of the spin-wave band gaps of a magnonic crystal (MC) by variation of its geometry is investigated by numerical simulations. The magnonic crystal is represented by a micro-sized planar ferromagnetic waveguide with periodically variable width. By choosing a step-like or sinusoidal variation of the width, the magnonic crystal reveals multiple or single band gaps, respectively. This allows for additional degrees of freedom in the design of MC based microwave filters and phase shifters with desired characteristics. The MCs band gaps have been studied in the space and frequency domains exploring the spin-wave spectrum dependence on the probing position inside the magnonic crystal.
