DNG Metamaterial Reflector Using SOCT Shaped Resonator for Microwave Applications

In this paper, the triple reflection band split O circled T (SOCT) shape metamaterial resonator is presented based on the transmission line principle. This paper aims to develop a miniature metamaterial resonator that can simultaneously perform as a reflector and a sensing element in the microwave range. Compare to symmetric and asymmetric structures; the reflection feature is mostly available in a typical resonating structure. The primary motivation beyond the presented work is to achieve high reflection with triple resonance points at 5.8 GHz, 6.37 GHz and 6.57 GHz. The proposed structure achieved Double Negative (DNG) features on this particular resonance with a relative permittivity value ranges −2.17 to −6.62 and relative permeability of −0.73 to −4.15. The scattering parameter performance was verified through simulation and measurement for unit cell and $5\times 8$ array structure. An analytical sensing ability for liquid salinity was performed for potential microwave application, which indicates a potential outcome of the proposed structure in microwave sensing applications.
