Abstract

The recently proposed split ring resonator (SRR) loaded waveguide as a simulator of a left-handed medium (LHM) is extended to the simulation of negative magnetic permeability media (NMPM) and used for the study of wave propagation in these media. The experimental results are compared with those provided by the discrete metamaterial (LHM and NMPM) theory. Good qualitative and acceptable quantitative agreement has been found between theory and experiments.
