Summary:
In this paper, we propose a frequency switchable metamaterial antenna for software-defined radio (SDR) applications. Metamaterial's zeroth-order resonance enables antenna size reduction. It is able to electronically switch a resonant frequency between 1.8 GHz and 2.3 GHz. More than 74 % of radiation efficiency is achieved at each frequency.
