Abstract

This paper presents the design of a Square Split Ring Resonators (SSRR) metamaterial inspired microstrip antenna for wireless communication. The SSRR is stacked on a rectangular patch antenna with dimensions 25×21.4×1.6mm <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">3</sup> and operates at 5.85 GHz. A novel SSRR design is used to improve the antenna gain. Detailed parameters of the SSRR inspired antenna are presented in this paper. The gain, return loss, directivity, and efficiency of the antenna are also presented in this paper. A gain of 5.278dB with bandwidth of 430MHz is obtained from the proposed antenna. This antenna can be used in mobile applications such as WiMAX and Wi-Fi. The design and simulation of both SSRR and microstrip antenna are done using the CST Studio Suites.
