The paper investigates the effect of Minkowski Island split ring resonator (MI-SRR) on the microstrip fractal patch antenna. Firstly, a basic Minkowski Island had been simulated in the CST Microwave Studio. Then, the addition of several sizes of the Minkowski Island split ring resonator on the substrate had been generated tri-band resonant frequencies. The optimal result of this tri-band antenna 2.394 GHz, 3.528 GHz and 5.257 GHz with a gain of 0.874 dB, 1.41 dB and 2.94 dB and the reflection coefficient magnitudes of - 21.945 dB, - 17.154 dB and – 16.536 dB. The reflection coefficient magnitudes of the simulation and fabricated antenna also had been compared. The target application for this antenna is for WLAN and WiMAX.

A wideband Minkowski fractal antenna with complimentary quadruple P-spiral split ring resonator (QPS-SRR) is proposed in this paper. Four minis complimentary QPS-SRR structure had been connected to the corner of the main Minkowski Island fractal to investigate the effect to the resonant frequency, return loss, bandwidth and gain of the antenna. Firstly a basic Minkowski Island of Design A is simulating. Then 2-N of complimentary QPS-SRR (Design B1 and Design B2) is added to the antenna. Lastly, five different sizes of complimentary 4-N QPS-SRR (Design C1, Design C2, Design C3, Design C4 and Design C5) is added in the antenna to compared its effect. Design C is effect to resonate at two different frequencies of 2.28 GHz and 3.336 GHz with return loss of – 13.252 dB and – 19.296 dB. This antenna also can be applies at 2.4 GHz of WLAN application and 3.5 GHz WiMAX application with return loss performance of – 13.252 dB and -12.26 dB, respectively. It shows the single bandwidth of the 4.8 mm width x 4.8 mm length QPS-SRR (Design C3) is 1.218 GHz.

The turn ratio, coupling space between sections, and substrate permittivity effects on spilt ring resonator (SRR) are investigated. The analysis of the presented SRR with respect to the effects of substrate and number of gaps per ring to further characterize its peculiarities is experimented with miniaturized capability as our intent. Six different SRRs were designed with different turn ratios, and the sixth is rectangular microstrip patch centre-inserted. Different numbers and gap sizes are cut on the SRRs while the gap spacing between the conductors of the SRR was varied to determine their effects taking cognizance of the effects of different substrates. The designs were investigated numerically using 3D finite integration technique commercial EM solver, and the resulting designs were prototyped and subsequently measured. Findings indicate that the reflection coefficient of the MSRR with centre-inserted patch antenna is better compared to MSRR without the patch antenna irrespective of the laminate substrate board, and so is its gain.

A compact periwinkle flower shaped fractal antenna loaded with split-ring resonator on either side of the feedline is proposed in this article. The proposed antenna consists of partial ground on flipside and a periwinkle flower petal is located on the rectangular patch. The proposed antenna works in multiband i.e., at 4.1GHz,4.5GHz,4.8Ghz(S-band) at 6.7GHz,6.75GHz(C-band) at 9.4GHz(X-band) and at 12.7(ku) i.e., proposed antenna covers almost one frequency at all radar frequency bands. The proposed antenna has been analyzed and maximum gain of 4dB and radiation efficiency of 87 percent is observed.

This paper presents an ultra-wideband tapered slot patch antenna with bi-directional radiation, reconfigurable for dual band-notched capability and fed by coplanar waveguide. The proposed antenna showed excellent ultra-wideband characteristics with bandwidth of (1.9–12 GHz). In order to reduce the interference of the narrow band communications represented by Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access radiation in the range (3.4–3.9) GHz and standard IEEE 802.11a. application (from 5.1 GHz to 6.1 GHz), the antenna was accompanied with adjustable dual-stop band capability in these bands. The dual-band notches are achieved with aid of inserting a parasitic single split ring resonator and etching a single circular complementary circle split ring resonator. The proposed antenna used epoxy (FR4) substrate material with ????r= 4.4 and dimensions of .

AbstractIn this paper, a miniaturized microstrip patch antenna using a negative index metamaterial with modified split-ring resonator (SRR) unit cells is proposed for ultra-wideband (UWB) applications. The new design of metamaterial based microstrip patch antenna has been optimized to provide an improved bandwidth and multiple frequency operations. All the antenna performance parameters are presented in response-graphs. Also it is mentioned that the physical dimensions of the metamaterial based patch antenna are very small, which is convenient to modern communication. A 130 % bandwidth, covering the frequency band of 2.9–13.5 GHz, (for return loss less than or equal –10 dB) is achieved, which allow the antenna to operate in the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) band. In addition, the antenna has a good radiation pattern in the ultra-wide band spectrum, and it is nearly omnidirectional.

An innovative method is proposed to improve the cross-polarization performance and impedance matching of a microstrip antenna by integrating a complimentary split ring resonator and slots as a defected ground structure. An equivalent circuit model (ECM) enables the design take into consideration the mutual coupling between the antenna patch and the Defected Ground Structure. The input impedance and surface current density analysis confirms that the integration of a CSRR within a rectangular microstrip patch antenna leads to uniform comparative cross-polarization level below 40 dB in the H-plane, over an angular range of ± 50°. Introducing parallel slots, as well, leads to a reduction of spurious antenna radiation, thereby improving the impedance matching. Measurements conducted on a fabricated prototype are consistent with simulation results. The proposed antenna has a peak gain of 4.16 dB at 2.6 GHz resonating frequency, and hence is good candidate for broadband service applications.
