We present gain characteristics of microstrip patch antennas covered with metamaterial substrate composed of split-ring resonators (SRRs) and metallic strip. To determine the performance of the SRR-metallic strip mounted on microstrip patch antenna, the metamaterial has been proposed as an effective medium with extracted constitutive parameters. Simulation results are supported by experimental measurements. The experimental results confirm that the metamaterial covered patch antenna improves gain by an amount of -5.68 dB (60.3%) as well as radiation pattern (-8 dB to +20 dB) at WLAN communication.

Fishnet based metamaterial loaded THz patch antenna Sirmaci, Y. Denizhan; Akin, Cagdas K.; Sabah, Cumali (2016-02-01) A fishnet based metamaterial (MTM) loaded rectangular microstrip patch antenna (RMPA) is proposed for THz applications. The negative refractive index of the MTM has been displayed at frequency range between 1.05 and 1.1 THz. This MTM can be used for improving the return loss, gain and radiation efficiency of RMPA. The return loss (S11), and gain are found as -57 and 3.57 dB, respectively. In addition, the bandwidth of -10 dB has been found as 8.2 %.
Wideband omnidirectional and sector coverage antenna arrays for base stations Alatan, Lale (2018-01-01) By using parallel strip line fed printed dipole antennas as array elements, an omnidirectional antenna array and a wide angle sector coverage array operating in octave band are designed. A maximum deviation of ±1.25 dB from the omnidirectional pattern is achieved for the omnidirectional array, and the average gain of the antenna was measured as being 5 dB in the 1.35–2.7GHz band. For the sector coverage array, a special reflector design is utilized to maintain a half power beam width of around 115◦ with a s...
Wideband Quarter Wave Transformer Based on Defected Ground and Split Ring Resonator Structures Yuksek, Yahya; Nesimoglu, Tayfun (2018-11-02) This article examines a wideband impedance transformer based on a split ring resonator and defected ground structures. The transformer was designed as a 4 section binomial one and it provides a transformation from 50 SI to 100 Omega. Reversed "Z" shaped defects are formed on the ground plane of the design in order to increase the bandwidth. The design has been simulated using a 3D electromagnetic simulator which utilizes finite integration technique. Three distinct resonances are exhibited at specific frequ...
Theoretical investigation and design of wideband dielectric resonator antennas Yüksel, Yılmaz Çağrı; Alatan, Lale; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2015) The aim of this thesis is to utilize Dielectric Resonator Antennas (DRA) as array elements due to their advantages over other conventional antenna elements such as dipoles and microstrip patches. Depending on both the excitation mechanisms and the antenna shape, a Dielectric Resonator Antenna (DRA) provides its designer multiple independent degrees of freedom. In this thesis three antenna shapes, namely hemispherical, cylindrical and rectangular DRAs, are investigated. The cylindrical and the rectangular sh...
Design and Implementation of Transmitting and Receiving Antenna Pair on Flat Ring Surface Haykir, Yigit; Karadağ, Savaş; Dagdeviren, Birkan; Demir, Şimşek (2018-11-02) In this work, design and implementation of broadside altimeter antenna on circular ring surface are performed. Utilizing array factor formulation, possible locations for circular array elements are chosen. Slitted microstrip patch antennas are used for an efficient design. Satisfactory results are obtained for an altimeter antenna that can be utilized in missile, aircraft or spacecraft applications.
