Abstract
We present characteristics of microstrip patch antennas on metamaterial substrates loaded with complementary split‐ring resonators (CSRRs). The proposed antenna utilizes CSRRs in the ground plane altering the effective medium parameters of the substrate. To characterize the performance of the CSRR loaded microstrip antenna, the metamaterial substrate has been modeled as an effective medium with extracted constitutive parameters. Simulation results were verified by experimental results. The experimental results confirm that the CSRR loaded patch antenna achieves size reduction as well as bandwidth improvement. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract In this work, microstrip lines loaded with complementary split rings resonators (CSRRs) and series capacitive gaps are modeled by means of a lumped element equivalent circuit. The structures exhibit a left‐handed (or backward wave) behavior at low frequencies, followed by forward transm
