Abstract

In this article, a metamaterial SRR and CSRR based octagonal ring-shaped multiband antenna is presented. The proposed antenna structure is designed with the implementation of slotted radiating patch with metamaterial cells for resonating at penta-bands to cover the 5G Sub-6 GHz NR frequency bands n48/n78/n79/n96, 3.5 GHz worldwide interoperability for microwave access, 5 GHz wireless local area network, 10.03-14.29 GHz upper X band and 15.74-19.98 GHz upper Ku band wireless applications. The proposed antenna with a compact dimension of 33×22×1.6 mm³ is fabricated to validate the simulated results with measured ones. The radiation characteristics is identified in stable and uniform manner for all the penta resonant bands.
