Abstract

This study numerically and experimentally introduces and investigates H-shaped metamaterials (MTMs) with negative refractive index on the coupling effect of a split ring resonator at the microwave X-band frequencies. The proposed models, consisting of one and two H-shaped MTMs structures, are designed in X-band for modern radar applications. The MTM structures show strong resonance at a range between 8 and 12 GHz. In addition, the effective constitutive parameters are revealed by using a retrieval procedure to verify the negative refraction phenomena of the proposed models. Furthermore, in order to verify the MTM characteristics of the structures, surface current distributions are realized. It can be seen that the structures can be efficiently used for filters, radar applications and so on in a certain frequency regime.
