Abstract
In this paper
small sized antenna are considered, based on the use
of metamaterials. The physical reasons explaining the effects of directivity
increasing and antenna matching improvement are
analyzed. It
is shown that the achievement of beneficial effects that are discussed in known
publications as a consequence of the properties of metamaterials with negative
permittivity and permeability can be explained in terms of a standard and
implemented means.
Key words: small sized antennas, antenna matching, antenna directivity,
metamaterials.
