In this paper, simple antennas covered by superstrate layers for 2.30 GHz to 2.50 GHz are proposed. The antennas are compact and have the capability of producing high performance in terms of gain, directivity, and radiation efficiency. Bismuth titanate with high dielectric constant of 21, was utilized as the ECM, while the superstrate layers chosen included a split ring resonator and dielectric material. The superstrate layers were designed for some improvement in the performance of directivity, gain, and return loss. The proposed antennas were simulated and fabricated. The results obtained were small antennas that possess high gain and high directivity with 360°, omni-directional signal transmission that resonant types of conventional dipole antenna cannot achieve. The gain of the antenna with the superstrate layer was enhanced by about 1 dBi over the antenna without a superstrate layer at 2.40 GHz. 2014-06-04T03:36:47Z 2014-06-04T03:36:47Z 2014-01 Article Scientific Reports 4, 2014, article 3709, pages 1-8 2045-2322 http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/dspace/handle/123456789/35047 http://www.nature.com/srep/2014/140115/srep03709/full/srep03709.html 10.1038/srep03709 en Macmillan Publishers Limited
