Abstract :
In this work, two metamaterial-inspired antennas are studied. The proposed structure consists of a printed dipole antenna with two Split Ring Resonator (SRRs). Good agreement between measured and simulated return losses is obtained. It is shown that the addition of SRRs leads to a multifrequency behavior depending on the size of SRRs and their proximity to the printed dipole.
