Abstrakt: A compact triple mode metamaterial (MTM) inspired antenna for wideband is presented. The antenna is based on composite right/left handed transmission line (CRLH-TL) which employs MTM loading on a conventional monopole to attain a certain degree of miniaturization. The antenna has triple mode of operations- negative order resonance (NOR), zero order resonance (ZOR) and positive order resonance (POR) modes. Two modes are merged into a single pass band (3.1 – 6.0 GHz) to obtain a dual band. The over size of the antenna is 33 × 26 × 1.6 mm3. A high level of miniaturization is obtained when the return loss of loaded and unloaded metamaterial antenna is compared. Simulated return loss shows that the proposed antenna is suitable for Wi-Fi (2.4 GHz) and WiMAX (3.5, 5.2–5.8 GHz). [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
