Wideband metamaterial antenna employing SRR loading for WiMAX and WLAN operations

A wideband metamaterial antenna employing SRR loading is presented. Two designs were simulated, fabricated and measured. The bandwidth enhancement is achieved by loading SRR resonator onto a conventional monopole antenna. The SRR excited a lower resonance frequency mode which matches with the resona...
