In order to improve the stealth performance of antenna, a metamaterial absorber with high absorption, polarization-insensitive and wide angle based on the electromagnetic resonance is designed. Using of ultra-thin characteristic of absorber, they are attached to the microstrip antenna to reduce its radar cross section. The simulation results show that the new microstrip antenna’s radiation performance remains unchanged compared with conventional microstrip antenna and it has obvious RCS reduction in its working band. While the maximum reduction can reach 28dB at working frequency, and the in-band reduction of antenna is above 3dB. This indicates that the absorber can be used for antennas’ in-band stealth.
