Abstract

The invention relates to the size reduction of an antenna using a magneto-dielectric material for a CRLH-TL (Composite Right/Left Handed Transmission Line) antenna. In particular, the invention provides a small and low profile metamaterial antenna attained by performing SRR (Split Ring Resonator) magnetization on a dielectric material and applying the magneto-dielectric material to the CRLH-TL antenna that is composed of patches and vias. Even further, the invention provides a metamaterial antenna using a magneto-dielectric material, the antenna comprising: a substrate which is made up of a magneto-dielectric material and which has an SRR structure inserted thereto; patches with a CRLH-TL structure formed at a predetermined distance above the substrate; and a ground plane formed at a predetermined distance below the substrate.
