The design and optimization of an annular ring dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) operating in the C frequency band is addressed. The DRA is intended to be used as the radiating element of a transmitting array of active integrated antennas, its input impedance must exhibit a proper resistive load at the fundamental resonance frequency, as well as a dominant reactive behavior, either inductive o...

In this paper, a microwave polarizer based on frequency selective surface (FSS) loaded with complementary split ring resonator (CSRR) for non-planar and conformal application is presented. The frequency-selective fabricated liquid crystal polymer substrates (LCPs) material <tex-math notati...

Rayleigh surface waves are proposed as a non-destructive method to find the depth of surface cracks. The paper describes how dynamic photoelasticity was used to develop an understanding of the subsurface interactions between R-waves and a narrow slot. A frequency analysis of the transmitted wave confirmed that the slot acts as a low pass filter for the high frequency Fourier components of the i...

A circularly polarized (CP) substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) cavity-backed slot antenna is proposed. A slot split ring (SSR) etched on the top metal surface of an SIW resonator is employed to generate the right-handed circularly polarized (RHCP) wave. The proposed antenna is excited directly by a coaxial probe with a proper distance from the symmetric axis of the SSR resonator. A prototype ...

Abstract:This methodology involves complementary square split ring resonators and a microstrip patch antenna both designed to resonate at same frquency.The proposed antenna is made by using metamaterial reflecting surface to obtain the maximum gain hight of reflecting surface is adjusted.we uses an array of squared split ring resonator (SRR) printed on a low dielectric constant material as the ...

In this paper, frequency Selective Property of a rectangular patch has been investigated. Study is based on patch without slot and the same patch with slot. In a fixed patch different shapes of slots have been cut and simulated results are noted. Observations are reported with different periodicities. The investigation includes a comparative study also.

This paper reports a flexible and stretchable metamaterial-based "skin" or meta-skin with tunable frequency selective and cloaking effects in microwave frequency regime. The meta-skin is composed of an array of liquid metallic split ring resonators (SRRs) embedded in a stretchable elastomer. When stretched, the meta-skin performs as a tunable frequency selective surface with a wide resonance fr...

In this paper a metamaterial-inspired antenna with high gain and good directivity is designed. Based on the concept of composite right/left-handed transmission line (CRLH-TL), the proposed antenna is realized based on three leakage wave unit cell and a left handed circular ring slot incorporated on the surface. The maximum achievable gain at the resonant frequency of 5.6 GHz is 6.933 dBi, and t...
