Zusammenfassung:A method for improving the efficiency of an electrically small antenna (1), comprising the following steps: - selecting (100) an antenna, - supplying said selected antenna (1) with an electric current, - quantifying (110) the energy stored in the selected antenna (1) for a given emission frequency, - determining the nature of the antenna (1) depending on said quantification of stored energy, said determination comprising a comparison (120) of said quantity of stored energy with an energy threshold, the antenna (1) being electrical in nature (130) if the quantified stored energy is less than the energy threshold and magnetic in nature (135) otherwise, - choosing an inclusion (2) made of metamaterial to associate with the selected antenna (1) to improve the efficiency of same, the choice being made from a list of inclusions depending on the nature of the selected antenna (1).
