Zusammenfassung:In this study, a novel planar mu -Negative (MNG) metamaterial structure based on Split Ring Resonators (SRRs) with improved rejection bandwidth is presented. A bridging technique is used to connect two SRR unit cells at the center to emulate a cascaded filter. The proposed structure achieved a -20 dB rejection bandwidth of 15.5% compared to 4.5% for the conventional SRRs which makes it a good candidate for integration with antennas and RF circuits that require large operational bandwidth.
