Abstract

We present three designs of electrically small, metamaterial-inspired antennas for WLAN applications. Each antenna consists of a different metamaterial unit cell such as the complementary split ring resonator (CSRR), double meander cell, and electric-LC (ELC) resonator that is transformed into a monopole-like structure with subwavelength dimensions. The monopoles are fed through a standard microstrip line, where a small ground plane is included as well. By utilizing these metamaterial-inspired shapes, small antenna dimensions ranging from λ8 to λ12 are achieved. Meanwhile, the design process is straightforward and the antennas have adequate radiation characteristics with sufficient bandwidth and high radiation efficiency that exceeds 50%.
