“…In fact, the metamaterial pattern is applied to physical devices aiming to obtain specific responses, like more gain and bandwidth, tune the microwave device at a certain frequency or just impose a rejection region. Several works in recent years have applied the metamaterial technology in different applications, like antennas [13][14][15][16][17][18][19], lens [20][21][22], among others [23,24]. In [14], a Complementary Split Ring Resonator (CSRR) structure is employed to a UWB antenna in order to provide a rejection characteristic in a desired frequency.…”

A miniaturized multiband printed monopole antenna is reported using hexagonal complementary split ring resonator (HCSRR) slots. Antenna miniaturization and multiband are accomplished by employing metamaterial inspired structure HCSRR. The proposed antenna consists of three HCSRR slots, it makes the antenna to resonate at 1.62 GHz, 2.4 GHz, 3.3 GHz, and 5.8 GHz frequency bands. The designed antenna structure has a small size of 20 × 20 × 1.6 mm3, which is fabricated on an FR‐4 substrate with dielectric constant |ɛnormalr of 4.4. The pass band characteristics of HCSRR are examined in detail for acquiring multiband abilities of the compact antenna, which is evaluated by use of the precise LC equivalent circuit design equations. The metamaterial property of the HCSRR is also studied to validate the resonance frequencies of the proposed antenna. Simulated and tested data are investigated. The prototype antenna has adequate advantages, with a simple structure, compact size, multiband, and uniform radiation patterns.

“…This problem even becomes more severe for a multiband antenna especially in lower frequency bands . In this regard, however, metamaterial antennas become the alternative candidates for different communication bands to improve antenna performance characteristics by using metamaterial units as a load on/near the patch, loading/etching from the ground plane, integrating inside the substrate, or making them as superstrate …”

Metamaterials are assemblies of metallic and/or dielectric materials with properties that are not readily found in naturally existing materials. Hence, metamaterial structures are commonly loaded on/near the patch, embedded in the substrate, loaded/etched from the ground plane or placed as a superstrate layer for enhancing bandwidth and gain, and size miniaturization of conventional patch antennas. The demand for wide bandwidth, high gain, and compact antennas is highly contemplated in recent wireless communication research studies. Despite their lightweight, ease of fabrication, low profile, and simplicity for integration, patch antennas have performance limitations as result of their narrow bandwidth, lower gain, larger size, and lower power handling capacity. To address these problems, metamaterial‐based antennas have gained massive interest. There exist inadequate literatures about review of current state of extensive study reports on metamaterial application for patch antenna performance enhancement. Thus, this paper has reviewed and discussed latest research works on metamaterial applications for performance enhancement of planar patch antennas.
