Abstract: In this paper, dual-band microstrip antenna with complementary split
ring resonator is presented. The designs are based on the metamaterial property
of the complementary split ring resonator. A simple dual-band antenna can be
realized by etching single CSRR in the ground plane of a conventional patch
antenna. The proposed antenna shows good performances at both resonant
frequencies. The CSRR in the ground plane makes a major contribution to the
first operating band, but it has a minor effect on the second operating band.
The simulation results are analyzed and compared with the measured results,
which shows that there is a good agreement between them.
