Miniaturized Wide Band Folded Microstrip Antennas based Metamaterials. Miniaturized folded MSAs based on MTM theory and techniques for Modern wireless applications

      Аннотация: The explosive growth in commercial and military applications , the demand for compact folded antennas have sufficiently high gain with multiband would be an ideal solution to support wideband technologies, such as modern wireless communication, biological microwave imaging and ground penetrating radar. However, the resulted techniques showed different drawbacks including bandwidth and gain limitations. Therefore, to exceed these drawbacks the recent approaches have come up with using metamaterial structures. In this book, for the first, it is addressed the technical approach to design conformal microstrip antennas based on metamaterials with highly miniaturized size reduction.
