Abstract

Antenna design plays the primary role in wireless communication technology. In this paper novel metamaterial structure is added in the rectangular patch antenna for operating in 5.5 GHz Wi-Max applications. "Meta" is a Greek word which means “beyond" the materials provides properties beyond the conventional materials. A rectangular patch antenna is provided with the metamaterial ground structure which is used to improve the performance of the normal patch antenna. In this research FR4 substrate with dielectric permittivity of 4.4 and height of the substrate is 1.6 mm is used for developing the metamaterial antenna. The Proposed antenna having dimension 30 mm length and 30 mm width. This metamaterial antenna is designed with an integral based solver simulation software called CST Microwave studio v2018 and obtained VSWR 1.05, Return loss of -31.068 dB and Bandwidth of 150 MHz, Directivity of 5.95 dB, gain of 5.82 dBi at the resonant frequency 5.5 GHz. This metamaterial antenna is suitable for 5.8 GHz Wi-Fi applications.
