Abstract
This paper deals with a brief review of advancements in the metamaterial field for the generation of the UWB frequency response during the past years. Extraordinary progress can be observed in the metamaterial field research which led for this technique to implement in many antenna applications. These are nonnatural engineered materials which have some special artificial electromagnetic properties. Ultra-wideband radio technology generally used for short-range communications covers a wide portion of the frequency spectrum and also consumes a very small energy level, the UWB range of frequencies 3.1–10.6 GHz. Metamaterials have many advantages like excellent beam performance, small size, low cost, radiated power enhancement and consume low power. The comparison of the proposed antennas is given in table; it is observed that the proposed antennas provide compact and enhanced bandwidth and show better improvement.
