Abstract

A metamaterial-based monopole antenna which resonates at L (L1 and L5) and S band for the IRNSS applications is described. The antenna has a low profile and is nearly is four times smaller in size than a conventional patch antenna. The multifrequency behavior is realized using a reactively loaded structure for the monopole antenna resulting in operation at both monopole and dipole modes. The monopole resonates at S Band and the dipolar mode resonance at L5 band. The novelty of the configuration is in realizing an additional band by introducing small square slot in the loaded structure. Copper wires are used to balance the current between the two ground at the antenna and the CPW feed line. The performance of the antenna is evaluated using ANSYS HFSS.
