- Abstract
- An artificial magnetic conductor using the split-ring resonators (SRRs) printed on conductor-backed dielectric substrate is presented. The simulation and measurement verify that the magnetic conductor is successfully accomplished around the resonant frequency. As an antenna application, the characteristics of a horizontal wire antenna placed above the SRR array, as well as a conducting ground plane and a grounded dielectric slab, are investigated and compared. A maximum gain of 4.34 dBi is obtained for the wire antenna above the SRR array. The results confirm that the split resonators can successfully be used to replace the antenna ground plane in order to improve their performance. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
