Abstract—In this paper, complementarysplitringresonator (CSRR) based single feed rectangular microstrip antennas are designed for circular polarization. In the first antenna design, two CSRRs are loaded on ground, and for the second design, two CSRRs are loaded on patch with identical orientation of meta-resonators in both cases. CSRRs are used to diminish the resonance frequency of the antenna, and thus the antenna size miniaturization can be achieved. Overall dimensions of the two antennas are (50 × 50 × 1 . 6) mm 3 , and the impedance bandwidth for S 11 < − 10 dB exhibits between 2.3 and 2.4 GHz

Abstract—In this research paper, a Ridge Substrate Integrated Waveguide (RSIW) multiple band bandpass filter embedded with an octagonal shape ComplementarySplitRingResonator (CSRRs) is proposed. The electrically coupled octagonal shape CSRR is placed interdigitally in RSIW using transverse coupling technique to improve multiple passband bandwidths. The filter exhibits a highly selective multiple electric or magnetic or bianisotropic mode for different frequencies. The analysis for spurious band suppression has been done by direct method. The prototype configuration of quarter- wavelength octagonal CSRR resonators introduces band suppression at all odd harmonics. The proposed structure of filter with dimension 1.36λ g × 0.52λ g excluding feed port is fabricated. Full wave structure
Abstract—A Compact Non-Bianisotropic ComplementarySplitRingResonator (NB-CSRR) based microstrip triple band antenna is presented in this paper. The antenna has a simple structure compared to other antennas for triple band operation. The antenna consists of a microstrip-fed NBCSRR loaded radiating element and partial ground plane. The designed antenna has a compact size of 29.4 mm × 26 mm × 1.6 mm. Two NBCSRR slots are etched on the radiating patch. Bottom NB- CSRR is used to generate new resonance, and top NB-CSRR is used to improve the return loss. The measured data show that the antenna covers the frequency ranges of 2.5 GHz–3.61 GHz, 4.06 GHz– 4.69 GHz, 4.80 GHz–6.07 GHz with impedance bandwidth of (< −10 dB) of 1.11 GHz, 0.63 GHz and 1.27 GHz. The results show that the antenna can cover WLAN and C band applications.
Abstract: A harmonics rejected microstrip narrowband band-stop resonator using complementarysplitringresonator (CSRR) structure is presented in this paper. The proposed harmonics rejected band-stop resonators are first derived from the conventional one with lumped parallel LC resonators. Secondly this lumped resonator is converted as a distributed band-stop resonator. The harmonic rejection ability of this distributed band-stop resonator is improved by embedding CSRR in its ground plane. The proposed design has the advantage of harmonic rejection ability as well as simple to fabricate. Hence the proposed design can be used in harmonics free narrow band transceivers to avoid design complexity. To verify the performance of the proposed design, distributed band-stop resonators are realized using microstrip technology. The experimental results show that in comparison with conventional one which one is not having CSRRs, it has a wide stop-band with high attenuation in the second and third harmonic frequencies and acceptable band-stop frequency response in the fundamental frequency also. The measured and simulated results are in good agreement. Hence, the proposed resonator will be an ideal candidate in future harmonics free narrowband communication systems.
Complementarysplitringresonator (CSRR) is one of the metamaterial structures, which has been applied for the design of circularly polarized antenna [6]. The bandgap characteristics of EBG structures have been used to improve the axial ratio bandwidth and impedance matching of antennas [7]. Meanwhile, with the development of wireless communication technologies, some multifunctional terminals with reconfigurable antennas are proposed to satisfy the requirements [8, 9]. Polarization reconfigurable antennas attract considerable attention and various types have been reported. In [10], four L-shaped slots are etched and eight PIN diodes are placed in the ground, but the antenna can be switched only between the right-handed and left-handed CPs. Two square loops are etched and two PIN diodes are placed in the antenna for switching between CP and LP in [11], and two DC bias circuits are needed to control two diodes separately.
Abstract—A square-shaped complementarysplitringresonator (CSRR) filtering structure for isolation improvement is presented in this paper. The proposed research work investigates the design and development of a simple and compact CSRR structure. In order to verify the performance of the proposed filtering element and to improve the isolation among the closely placed antenna elements, arrays of configured CSRR structures are implemented between two antenna elements. An array of configured CSRR elements has been integrated with the printed antenna on the top and bottom layers. The proposed filtering elements offer an enhancement in isolation by 25 dB as compared to the simple array. The entire configuration has been simulated using the Ansoft HFSS simulator. Finally, the proposed design is fabricated and experimentally validated. In the experiment, coupling suppression of − 51 dB at the operating frequency is successfully achieved, resulting in a recovery of the array pattern. The proposed antenna is highly efficient, which is suitable to be utilized for 5G communication.
This paper presents a compact patch antenna loaded with a square complementarysplitringresonator which is intended to operate in the C-band applications. The CSRR embedded in the patch antenna helps in reducing the resonance frequency of the microstrip patch antenna. It couples the field to the patch and makes it radiate. It can be stated that the ring slot in the CSRR provides the capacitive coupling where as the outer split in the CSRR provides the magnetic coupling [8]. A C band operation can be obtained by properly feeding the antenna with coaxial feed.
The second process is a design of bowtie patch antenna with a new structure of complementarysplitringresonator at 2.4 GHz for wireless LAN application. The designing and calculation processes are referring to the literature reviews that have been done in previous process. Then, the design was simulated with CST Microwave Studio to get the return loss, bandwidth, radiation pattern and the gain of the patch antenna. The normal bow-tie antenna is designed first then followed by a bow-tie patch antenna with complementarysplitringresonator.

The overall size of the coupler is 80 mm × 70 mm, which is about 0.36 λ × 0 . 32 λ at the central frequency 1.35 GHz.

Abstract—This paper proposes miniature radio frequency identifica- tion (RFID) tag antenna designed to operate on metallic objects, in the UHF frequency range (915 MHz), without significantly degrading its read range. The antenna structure is composed of two parts: Part 1 comprises two square patches electrically connected to the ground plane through vias while Part 2 is an unconnected inter-layer con- sisting of two square complementarysplitring resonators to allow for capacitive reactance increase. Consequently, its self-resonant frequency will shift towards low frequency, which theoretically allows shrinking RFID tag antenna into smaller size. The antenna was simulated and measured to verify its conjugate matching with chip impedance. The results of experimental tests show that the proposed RFID tag offers a maximum read range of 0.82 m when placed on a metallic object. The tag’s overall size is 36.7 × 18.1 × 3.165 mm 3 . Both simulation and

Novel band-pass substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) filters based on broadside-coupled complementarysplitringresonator (BC-CSRR) and modified BC-CSRR resonator pairs have been described. The centre frequency of the proposed filters is located below the cutoff frequency of the waveguide. Four SIW-BC-CSRR resonator structures have been introduced and compared by changing the orientation of the rings on the upper broadwall. Based on these resonators, bandpass filters have been designed and fabricated. It is shown that these filters are compact and easy to fabricate and integrate with other electric circuits and they have great potential for low-cost integrated microwave circuits. The type IV unit cell provides two poles and two zeroes, one above and one below the centre frequency, and this gives considerable advantage for the design of a miniature filter with high performance.

The possibility to obtain media with simultaneously negative permeability and permittivity (also called left-handed metamaterials (LHMs)) was firstly hypothesized by Veselago in the late 60s [1]. The first experimental evidence of such a medium was demonstrated [2], which consisted of a bulky combination of metal wires and SplitRing Resonators (SRRs). The electromagnetic properties of the SRR [3, 4] show that by virtue of the distributed capacitance between concentric rings and overall ring inductance, SRR behaves as an LC resonant tank that can be excited by an external magnetic flux. Thereafter, another key particle has been proposed for metamaterial design [5], namely, the complementarysplit-ringresonator (CSRR), which is the negative image of an SRR. The authors have demonstrated that CSRRs etched in the ground plane of planar transmission media provide a negative effective permittivity to the structure. Since SRRs and CSRRs are both planar configurations, SRRs and CSRRs (properly combined with shunt metallic wires or series gaps) have been successfully applied to the design of novel planar microwave circuit and devices [6–11] based on the equivalent circuit model [5].
Lately, complementarysplitringresonator (CSRR) have been use in resonant sensor to characterize the dielectric constant of the material under test [6]. There are many advantages such as the low cost manufacturing, convenience, presence non- invasive and easy to prepare. Conversely, permittivity part are not consider by previous paper in term of the effect of air gap between the test specimen and the planar structure. However, the CSRR rectangular design have been use by researcher to measuring the dielectric properties of materials.
In recent years, metamaterial inspired antennas are becoming popular due to the proven extraordinary electromagnetic properties. Planar metamaterial inspired antennas are designed by using metamaterial inspired structures such as SRR and CSRR [1]. Metamaterial is an artificial structure synthesized to display amazing properties not yet found in natural material [2]. Due to the unusual electromagnetic property, many researches have been done for the performance improvement of the antenna. SRR is basically a μ-negative metamaterial structure. The ComplementarySplitRingResonator (CSRR) is complementary dual element of SRR. CSRR is a ε-negative metamaterial. SRR and CSRR are resonant structures. The Double Negative (DNG) metamaterial is constructed by combining μ-negative metamaterial and ε-negative metamaterial. The equivalent circuit of SRR was useful to find the metamaterial characteristics [3].
