A split-ring resonator (SRR)-based power tiller wheel-shaped quad-band ℇ-negative metamaterial is presented in this research article. This is a new compact metamaterial with a high effective medium ratio (EMR) designed with three modified octagonal split-ring resonators (OSRRs). The electrical dimension of the proposed metamaterial (MM) unit cell is 0.086λ × 0.086λ, where λ is the wavelength calculated at the lowest resonance frequency of 2.35 GHz. Dielectric RT6002 materials of standard thickness (1.524 mm) were used as a substrate. Computer simulation technology (CST) Microwave Studio simulator shows four resonance peaks at 2.35, 7.72, 9.23 and 10.68 GHz with magnitudes of -43.23 dB -31.05 dB, -44.58 dB and -31.71 dB, respectively. Moreover, negative permittivity (ℇ) is observed in the frequency ranges of 2.35-3.01 GHz, 7.72-8.03 GHz, 9.23-10.02 GHz and 10.69-11.81 GHz. Additionally, a negative refractive index is observed in the frequency ranges of 2.36-3.19 GHz, 7.74-7.87 GHz, 9.26-10.33 GHz and 10.70-11.81 GHz, with near-zero permeability noted in the environments of these frequency ranges. The medium effectiveness indicator effective medium ratio (EMR) of the proposed MM is an estimated 11.61 at the lowest frequency of 2.35 GHz. The simulated results of the anticipated structure are validated by authentication processes such as array orientation, HFSS and ADS for an equivalent electrical circuit model. Given its high EMR and compactness in dimensions, the presented metamaterial can be used in S-, C- and X-band wireless communication applications.
A commercially viable metal-dielectric-metal configured triple-band metamaterial absorber is offered in this paper. It is an aggregation of four compact symmetric circles, with a swastika-shaped metal structure, which are bonded by two split-ring resonators (SRRs). Copper (annealed) of electrical conductivity 5.8 × 107 Sm-1 is used for the ground plate and resonator portion of the top layer and an FR 4 dielectric of permittivity 4.3 is used as a substrate. The structural parameters of the unit cell were determined by a trial and error method. FIT-based 3D simulation software (CST microwave studio, 2019 version was used to characterize the proposed perfect metamaterial absorber (PMA). Three resonance peaks were observed at frequencies 3.03, 5.83 and 7.23 GHz with an absorbance of 99.84%, 99.03% and 98.26%, respectively. The numerical result has been validated by some authentic validation methods. Finally, a microwave network analyzer (PNA) of Agilent N5227 with waveguide ports were deployed for measurement. The simulation and experimental results show better harmony. The proposed PMA has a unique design and a small dimension with higher absorption compared to other contemporary studies. This special type of polarization, insensitive S- and C-band PMA, is designed for a telecommunication system via full-time raw satellite and radar feeds.
