Design and simulation of multiband Chaucer fractal patch antenna loaded with metamaterial

Abstract

This paper presents design and simulation of multiband Chaucer fractal patch antenna loaded with complementary square split ring resonator (CSSRR). CSSRR is single negative metamaterial having negative permittivity. The antenna resonates at 8GHz, 11GHz, 15GHz and 17GHz. Simulation results indicate that there is a fair value of return loss, gain, and bandwidth and directivity at all four resonant frequencies. The IE3D electromagnetic simulation and optimization engine based on MoM has been used for the purpose.
