Abstract

In this paper, a novel CPW-fed triple band metamaterial inspired antenna with modified ground plane is presented. The metamaterial inspired structures such as split ring resonator (SRR) and non bianisotropic complementary split ring resonator (NBCSRR) are embeded in this antenna for triple band operation. The proposed antenna with a compact size of 25 x 31.7 x 1.6 mm³ is fabricated and tested. The antenna with good radiation characteristics is suitable for WIMAX, C band and WLAN applications The simulated and measured results are discussed and are in good agreement with each other.
