Abstract
This article presents the design, simulation, and fabrication of a new planar left-handed metamaterial (LHM), which consist of a combination of a modified square rectangular split ring resonator and strip wire. Both structures are on the same plane. The structure is simulated and measured with the microstrip antenna operating at frequency 5.8 GHz. The LHM has been analyzed using Nicolson-Ross-Weir approach to obtain the negative permeability and permittivity at 5.8 GHz. The fabrication of the LHM is on FR-4 board substrate. From the simulation and measurement results, the gain of the microstrip antenna with LHM has increased by 4.0 dB. The return loss of the antenna with LHM is improved to 15.7 dB compare without LHM structure.
