Abstract :
Over the last decade, the composite right/left-handed (CRLH) transmission line structures have received great interest in the microwave community due to their unique physical characteristics that have been exploited for a number of applications, mostly for antennas and passive components. CRLH structures can also be applied to active circuits. This paper reviews some of the examples of active circuit applications of the CRLH structures.
