Polarization insensitive split square ring resonator based epsilon-negative and near zero refractive index metamaterial for S, C, and X frequency bands satellite and radar communications

Abstract This study has investigated the impact of inverse G-like shape resonators that exhibited epsilon negative (ENG) and near-zero refractive index (NZI) properties for multi-band wireless communications applications. The electrical measurement of structure is 0.118λ × 0.118λ × 0.021 λ, which is...

description Abstract This study has investigated the impact of inverse G-like shape resonators that exhibited epsilon negative (ENG) and near-zero refractive index (NZI) properties for multi-band wireless communications applications. The electrical measurement of structure is 0.118λ × 0.118λ × 0.021 λ, which is calculated at 3.94 GHz. FR-4 is used as a substrate layer, and the resonator is designed on it. This structure is manifested in the ENG and NZI characteristics within the frequency range of 3.8–4.17, 7.68–8.54, 10.67–11.36 GHz, and 4.07–4.15 and 8.29–8.37 GHz, respectively. This study also manifests the polarization insensitivity nature of 0°–90°, and the incident angle is investigated up to 60° for both TE and TM modes. The proposed structure achieves triple resonance at 3.94 GHz, 8.08 GHz, and 11.17 GHz, respectively, included in the S, C, and X frequency bands. The CST Microwave Studio 2019 software is conducted to design, develop, perform analysis, investigate electromagnetic properties, and extract effective medium parameters. The Advanced Design Software (ADS) is used to model the equivalent circuit of the unit cell. The simulated, measured, and ADS results verified the scattering parameter performance. The EMR value of the structure is 8.47, indicating the structure's compactness. The compact design with simplicity, ENG, and NZI properties make the proposed structure significant for microwave application, mainly to enhance the antenna bandwidth and gain filter design. ENG and NZI properties the operation frequency stability and efficiency for low earth orbit nanosatellite communications.
