AbstractIn this paper, a multimode terahertz absorber is implemented using an ultrathin silicon ring with varying multimodal resonance. The rectangular silicon ring is providing three resonances with creating electromagnetic dipoles. The altering of these resonances is explicitly controlled with the help of a circular graphene ring. The graphene ring is used in the centre for tenability and to achieve perfect absorption. An equivalent circuit model is also presented and verified for the proposed structure. The design is intended to measure the glucose percentage in water. In addition, this can be used as a biosensor for the detection of malaria parasite percentage in water. A few important parameters like sensitivity and quality factors are considered to evaluate the performance of the said design. The sensitivity with analyte thickness is found to be 0.445 THz TU−1, 0.4255 THz TU−1, and 0.4305 THz TU−1. The corresponding quality factor is noted for the lower, middle, and upper bands as 235, 653, and 264 respectively. Further, the sensitivity and quality factors were measured just by changing the refractive index. The new estimated values are 0.480 THz RIU−1, 0.403 THz RIU−1, and 0.562 THz RIU−1 and corresponding quality factors are 203, 555, and 261 for lower, middle, and upper bands respectively. The design is also expected to flourish as a polarization‐insensitive absorber.

This paper proposes topologies for narrowband and broadband notch filters using complementary split ring resonators (CSRR) in coplanar waveguide (CPW) technology. Simple analysis justifies these topologies. Strong coupling between the resonator and the signal line in these topologies can reduce the radiation loss in the stop-bands. Characteristics of these filters realized from electromagnetic simulations match closely with those from measurements on prototypes.

This paper presents a broadband terahertz (THz) metamaterial absorber. The unit cell structure of this absorber consists of three layers. The top layer of the structure contains a circular graphene ring. At the center frequency of 2THz, this circular graphene ring has a fractional bandwidth of 67% and absorptivity of more than 90%. The proposed absorber is polarization insensitive because of its fourfold symmetrical structure. The graphene parameter is optimized to get maximum bandwidth. This metamaterial offers TE and TM polarization insensitive up to a 60° incident angle of electro-magnetic wave.

This study proposes an ultra-wideband (UWB) metasurface-based beam-switching antenna system. A coplanar (CP) waveguide fed slot antenna (with 49% operating bandwidth) is coupled with a hexagonal metallic aperture to generate CP beam in the 10.2–10.8 GHz band. An octagonal split ring inclusion-based meta-element is designed to achieve 2π transmission phase variation with near-unity magnitude. The principle of the Pancharatnam–Berry metasurface is used to design an offset metasurface superstrate for tilting the main beam of the UWB antenna for the CP band. Measured results (S 11, axial ratio, and radiation pattern) agree well with full-wave simulations. The fabricated X-band UWB aperture coupled antenna system uses the metasurface superstrate to achieve a broadside beam for the lower band and tilted beam for the upper band. This antenna system holds promise for next-generation vehicular and satellite communication applications.

This work is dealing with the principle of modelling a 2-D metamaterial reflector lens antenna used as a communication device. The lens antenna is consisting of low loss with wideband E-shaped metamaterial resonators (ESR) and the parabolic reflector. The metamaterial structure shows a negative refractive index (NRI) behaviour to a normally incident wave. The numerical simulation has been carried out using CST microwave studio (MWS) 3-D simulator. The main idea of this present work is to investigate the focusing effect of the planar metamaterial lens and to enhance the radiation pattern by reducing the sidelobe levels and increasing the main lobe level. The simulated results of both far-field and near-field radiation patterns in wider bandwidth, showing high directivity and gain upto 18dBi is achieved.

This paper proposes principles of modeling Luneburg lens for broadband communication application. The modeling of a single Luneburg lens along with a small Luneburg lens with primary Luneburg lens was studied. The results prove the focusing effect of Luneburg principle and also the enhancement of this effect due to the small Luneburg lens acting as a superstrate for primary one.

This article proposes a compact (43 × 26 × 0.8 mm3) dual‐band two‐element metamaterial‐inspired MIMO antenna system with high port isolation for LTE and WiMAX applications. In this structure, each antenna element consists of a square–ring slot radiator encircling a complementary split ring resonator. A tapered impedance transformer line feeds these radiating apertures and shows good impedance matching. A 2 × 3 array of two‐turn Complementary Spiral Resonator structure between the two antenna elements provides high dual‐band isolation between them. The fabricated prototype system shows two bands 2.34 – 2.47 GHz (suitable for LTE 2300) and 3.35 – 3.64 GHz (suitable for WiMAX). For spacing between two antennas of 10 mm only, the measured isolation between the two antenna elements in the lower band is around −32 dB while that in the upper band is nearly 18 dB. The system shows a doughnut‐shaped radiation patterns. The peak measured antenna gains for the proposed MIMO system in the lower and higher bands are 3.9 and 4.2 dBi, respectively. The MIMO system figure of merits such as the envelope correlation coefficient, total efficiency are also calculated and shown to provide good diversity performance.

ABSTRACTThis letter reports numerical and experimental study on a concentric‐edge‐coupled low‐loss MTM structure composed of concentric skewed omega inclusion and capacitive strip wire unit cells for DNG behavior via transmission and reflection characteristics. Modified NRW method provides effective medium parameters, refractive index, and the dispersion characteristic from simulated S‐parameters. It is shown that this MTM exhibits DNG behavior over 3.65–4.53 GHz band. It also investigates the effect of geometrical parameters, like strip width, slit gap, length and width of each side, and arc length on magnetic resonant frequency. Incidence of perpendicularly polarized electromagnetic wave on a host medium embedding metallic skewed omega inclusions interact shows negative material parameters for the composite media in the frequency band of interest. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

ABSTRACT Design of an optimized planar coplanar waveguide (CPW) fed complementing C-shaped patch antenna for broadband communication is presented. It resonates at 2.1 GHz with bandwidth spanning from 1.2 to 2.45 GHz for the return loss of −10 dB or more. In the absence of closed form design formulae for its resonant frequency, this paper proposes use of either artificial neural network (ANN) or simulated annealing (SA). Results from these stochastic methods are in good agreement with those from electromagnetic (EM) simulations as well as prototype measurements. The EM simulations show good radiation characteristics and moderate gain in the entire operating band of the antenna.

Abstract. Artificial neural network and simulated annealing are applied to obtain optimized design parameters of skewed omega-shaped metamaterial unit cells for providing left-handed material (LHM) with a negative refractive index. The implemented numerical and experimental methods provide evidence for the validity and practicality of the technique. Simulation, with optimized parameters, using CST Microwave Studio, shows that skewed LHMs are low-loss materials.

In this paper, a band notched ultra-wideband antenna integrated with complementary split ring resonator (CSRR) is proposed and investigated. The proposed antenna not only covers the UWB frequency spectrum but also avoids interference with HIPERLAN/2 (5.15 GHz - 5.35 GHz) by giving a notch band from 4.98 GHz to 5.37 GHz. The centre frequency of the notched band is 5.2 GHz at which the wireless LAN (HIPERLAN/2) in Europe is assigned. The notch band in the proposed paper is achieved by etching CSRR in the radiating patch. The complementary split ring resonator acts as a bandstop filter and hence enables the rejection of any undesired band within the passband of the antenna. The proposed antenna operates from 2.7 GHz to 13.7 GHz for voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) less than 2, except the notch band of 4.98 GHz to 5.37 GHz.

In this paper we purpose a triangular split ring resonator (TSRR) loaded with co-planar waveguide (CPW) line for realizing a planar band-pass filter for miniaturization and high data rate WiMAX communication system. It consists of a 50Ω CPW line with triangular resonator etched on backside of substrate, parallel to the CPW. Because of negative permeability offered by the SRR and series capacitance this structure exhibits backward wave propagation in the vicinity of its resonant frequency. Due to the strong inductive coupling between resonator and line and periodically loading the line with narrow wires, resulting high selectivity with low insertion loss in the wide band-pass characteristic.

This paper investigates the effect of a metamaterial superstrate on a single-feed circularly polarized microstrip patch antenna (SFCP-MPA) using CAD simulations. Simultaneous enhancement on antenna gain (up to 3dB), impedance bandwidth (BWZ) and axial ratio bandwidth (BWAR) are observed as well as multi-frequency operations at 5.125 GHz, 11.34 GHz 12.43GHz. Also it is observed that the invisible first harmonic becomes prominent and visible. Besides, the result also suggest that the Superstrate acts as a DRA (at 12.43GHz).

Metamaterial have been shown to enhance specific performance parameters of low profile antennas. In this paper we investigate appreciably enhancement of the gain & radiation pattern of a low profile micro strip patch antenna by placing a metamaterial slab above it (as a super strate) using CST MWS simulator. This paper proposes a metamaterial super strate surface as a reflective surface for micro strip patch antenna (MPA). The MTM structure was a combination of the triangular SRR (TSRR) and the wire strip (WS) to obtain negative values of permittivity & permeability. The gain of the MPA with MRS is around 5 dB higher than that of conventional MPA on FR4 substrate. These improvements were due to negative refraction characteristics of LHM structure that converts into super-lens, when placed in front of the antenna. The small spacing between MRS and the patch surface was another merit in the present design, which was as low as ?/10 as it results in low profile antenna design, that will suits in modern wireless communication system.
