Abstract :
In this paper, a novel configuration for a compact planar antenna based on the use of Split Ring Resonators (SRR) is proposed. Excitation of the SRR element is performed by adequately placing the access microstrip lines with respect to the confinement plane of the split rings. Full wave simulation results have been compared with measured values, showing good agreement. The final result is a low cost implementation of a planar miniaturized antenna, with a broad range of applications spanning from mobile terminals to WLAN and WPAN systems.
